You hit upon the key word in your last post: Un-professionalism

That's the issue that has been irking me regarding the last projects, and as you said, it Was one of the reason why ALYS was rejected by Yamaha. Really I don't know too much about Jewel, so I can't comment about it.

However in the case of Ruby, basically is an orphan indie project, without a company or an stable funding. I mean, in this circumstances really I can't see a good end for that project. Even the MTG had to fund their own company, Voctro-Labs, before begin to sell their products... And we're talking about the people who developed the VOCALOID software in first place! The reason of this are the legal matters, rights and intellectual property that need to be attended before starts with project.

Besides that, the way Syo and Bil had been informing about the progress of the project is simply awful. If they wanted do something serious they should have done a press release, instead of do it through leaks and announcements in the social networks which lacks the professionalism of a serious project.

Another project I would take with a pinch of salt is the Korean VOCALOID, Uni. Despite their claims, there's nothing that supports it. Indeed, one of our contacts in YAMAHA had no idea about the project. Knowing that, I wouldn't be surprised if Uni ends being just a big hoax :/
