Bushing has recently posted an update for the world of HackMii. He talks a little about how "Marcan" left the team, but the real good news is about BootMii. Apparently, they will be releasing a Beta version pretty soon. Check out the screentshot of the sweet GUI below.
Quote:
"Yes, BootMii is still alive; I still can’t promise a release date, but most of the code has been written and we’re now to the point of testing it out and adding some polish. It’s been installed on about 12 Wiis so far and nobody’s been bricked; I hope that we can release a “public beta” within the next couple of weeks. (In this case, “public beta” will mean “we’ve tested this out quite a bit and are fairly confident that you won’t regret trying it, but not everything is finished and we can’t make too many promises). I would expect those of you who have older Wiis (i.e. those who have a vulnerable boot1) to have an easier time installing it, but we intend to eventually add support for as many of your Wiis as possible."
