Yes, Chiron's website is currently down. I'm going to change soon my host since I've been having several problems with the current one for a while.

A new version will be released sometime in 2014, like Martin just said.

I don't think Shredder is dead, but it has been a while since the last version?

Great news that Chiron is still around!

Can't wait to see the next version.

The last Shredder version was 2009 or 2010 I believe.

The author has stated in an email that he is still working on Shredder. Would love to see another Shredder. That was the first engine I ever purchased or used!
