Sadly my own initiative also failed. And that's purely my fault -- got a new job, couldn't keep up with releasing free products (although, I have 3 themes ready for release), missed the schedule, etc.

Anyway, quit my job last December, have some money to keep me alive atleast few months -- gonna be focusing on wplovin.com full-time :) Already have customized Grunt template (for wp.org themes) ready, which I'm gonna open-source sometime soon (building few themes on it, just to bulletproof test it before the release) + main website redesign is going nicely so far. Year 2015 should be pretty interesting.
