In June the RipDev-Team announced to quit with Installer. They now announced they will quit entirely. The most important competitor of Cydia stops. Apps like Installer, Icy, Kate and Kali will never be updated again.

The RipDev-Team apologizes for quitting the support for payed applications. Their own Cydia repo will only be available for another year, but will not be updated if bugs are found.

The RipDev (Russian iPhone Development)-Team has several reasons to quit: “There are many reasons for this, most of which we probably will never disclose (unless we are forced to).”

Below is the English text about the announcement of the end of the RipDev-Team:

“It’s been a great two years, but unfortunately, the time has come for Ripdev to close its doors. There are many reasons for this, most of which we probably will never disclose (unless we are forced to). The important thing is that due to circumstances we will likely be unable to support the titles we have created over the years further. They will be perfectly operatable on the firmware versions they were created for, and you will be able to download and use them — but they will no longer be supported and updated (except for i2Reader Pro that is not being developed by us and that will be kept in sync with its App Store version). We will, of course, transfer the licenses to the new devices — just email us. Our Cydia repository will be operational until at least next year, so be assured that the products you liked and paid for will be available for you to (re)install.
It was a honor to be in the iPhone jailbreak community, and we are proud that we have certainly made a ripple or two. Farewell!”
