Future of ossbuild and relation to GStreamer SDK

For those not familiar with the announcement, Collabora and Fluendo (two big 
GStreamer-focused companies) are working on a GStreamer SDK which seems to 
encompass what ossbuild is and more (Linux, Max support all in one). There are 
blog posts about it, by Thomas Vander Stichele [0] and Christian Schaller [1], 
as well as press releases by Collabora [2] and Fluendo [3].

I've asked them, and it appears development will occur in a closed environment 
until they make a first release. No release schedule has been given yet, so 
it's unclear when this would happen. I know ossbuild has seen very little 
development lately, but is it expected for the project to continue after this 
SDK is released? I suppose there's simply not enough information available yet, 
but I think it's good to bring this up.
