Just found out that the NGUI developer Unity hired to write the New GUI no longer works for Unity, does this mean that the New GUI has stalled again?
He didn’t work alone on the new GUI. The others can easily continue the work.
Hopefully that’s true, they hired him for a reason…
They could have hired him for the vision and base work. They have the groundwork and most things relating to the GUI are pipe-lined and probably planned out for a while.
Or they start from scratch 
This is the time to hire Takuan Daikon…
My guess is his departure had something to do with “creative differences”. Making a UI system that satisfies most people is a difficult task, and people have differing opinions as to how that should be done. I don’t know a lot about Mr Lyashenko, but he does seem like the type of guy who has his fair share of opinions. And so they parted ways.
Delayed to unity 6.x!
Source???
I think that was a joke.
Pretty sure that wasn’t a joke!
Nope. Delayed until Unity 6.3.
source please.
Anything to indicate the GUI is due out soon, or is no news good news?
No news is never good news, at least with software. I think you should just give up on the new GUI. I gave up already and I don’t feel frustrated about the “no news policy” anymore 
Also, Daikon Forge seems really interesting.
Unity just removed that post and are now saying it’s delayed to Unity 7.5. 
They said it was a typo, it’s delayed until 8.5.

Back in the start of December it looked like the new GUI system was merged with a 4.x release -
