DnSpy was great. The author (d4d) did many great things for the world of .net reversing and binary analysis, including dnspy and dnlib. One day, i don't know why, they archived most of their repositories.

I'm glad electrokill stepped up and maintains dnspyex now. This also shows how resilient open source can be - as long as someone wants to work on the project, it can go on forever.

I think the simple answer here is that we grew up. Most of us in the scene at that time and creating these types of tools were between 16-20 years old.

That's right. There was a time when reverse engineering was a big scene and creating these kind of tools was a craze. But eventually it faded away as people started using more web based tools

  tools are private or security companies were created based on this work. Only few are published (to create market for defense tools or penetration testing you need to show that hacking is very easy - no one needs lockers if there are no thiefs).
