Except that there is nothing to be made of it! Seriously but what are you talking about!? You say and don't say at the same time.
I'm in Slack and also follow the team internal channel, there is nothing out of ordinary except a lot of work with helping Blocnation dICO and the usual fixes and tweaks of such situations. No one has abandoned developement on Github, maybe the confusion arises from seeing the new Notary Nodes operators in #notary channel. It's the only explanation I can think of, except deliberate fudding.
