“Progeny, a Linux-based company founded by Debian originator Ian
Murdock, shut its doors on April 30. Progeny’s Web site now carries
nothing but a notice saying the company is no longer in
operation.

“So far, the only media notice of the closure has been a brief
mention at OSNews.com, which quoted an email sent to a Progeny
email list that said, ‘We are sad to inform you that Progeny Linux
Systems is ceasing operations. This mailing list that we are
hosting will be closed and decommissioned later tonight, Eastern
Daylight Time. If you want the list archives, please download them
now. Thank you…'”
