So, the latest scuttlebutt is that Luthier has exited from DCS:WWII (voluntarily or otherwise) and Eagle Dynamics have taken over development of the project which will now be released 'module style' like all the other DCS projects.
Task Force should not worry though, the Dora is still on guideline for release within a couple of months. Here's their current intended timeline:
August 2014 – Fw 190 D-9 Dora
October 2014 - BF-109K
December 2014- Spitfire IX
March 2015 - P-47D-28
May 2015 - Normandy Map with period AI units
Bear in mind that this is ED time (like Valve time) so it's anyones best guess, but they are intending to hold up the promises from the kickstarter campaign, and ED don't usually break their word.

Well, colour me not surprised. Luthier may have a passion for flightsims but he has no real way of translating that into an actual working flightsim without it a) being horribly broken [CLOD]or b) taken over by another party [Pacific fighters].
Still, at least it's not a total loss.
And Task Force still gets his Dora.
