I don't remember why Targetware fizzled out, I think the guy coding the engine may have fallen ill or even passed away. I *think* his handle was 'sick' and the only other names that are coming back to me right now that were involved were yak and vadr.
Yes, that's the coder sick who had developed Roger Wilco in the 90s. Sick suffered serious life issues and had to give up working on the Targetware. (your memory might be associated with the incident where he was assaulted at a metro station and didn't recover well for a while in the mid-2000s) Target Rabaul Dev team(yak, baders, peril) tried to revive the project a few occasions but little could be done for losing the wiz core coder.
