What Happens with IceFrog ?




I've read an article from Dota-Allstars-blog and I was surprised when I look the title like this "IceFrog Leaves Dota-Allstars.com! WTF??!!" So, after read the article on there I went to Dota-Allstars thread's to see what happens with IceFrog and Dota-Allstars.com

On those thread's I can find information Why IceFrog decide to leaves Dota-Allstars.com? For your information, Pendragon_ is Dota-Allstars.com founder and you can read about IceFrog in this blog. As I know from the thread in Dota-Allstars.com, IceFrog left Pendragon_ because Pendragon_ want to commercialize Dota and IceFrog didn't agree with it! He wanted it to remain a hobby.
 
And here the article's quote from IceFrog :

DotA Website News

As a result of some differences, I am no longer affiliated with the dota-allstars.com website. I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone over there the best of luck in the future.

I still plan on continuing DotA development for a long time, a couple years at the very least. The next update, 6.60, is nearing the end of its design and testing phase. The translation phase will also be starting shortly. There is still a little bit more work to do on fixing some specific content, but it's finally approaching completion. I will post another update here in the near future. 

As of today, I am starting a new community site for DotA. I think it is more valuable to the players though if I focus most of my time on developing and improving the game, so I'm here to reach out and ask for help on this. I believe that with some organization, the community has some very talented people that can help build a site to serve their interests and needs. Help can come in many different forms: programming, design, technical support, content contributions, etc. My goal is to have a format where everyone that wants to help can contribute in a productive way. If you are interested in being involved, please send me an email at IceFrog@gmail.com

Now, let us see what will be happen next... Wish all the best guys ^.^
