In terms of release date, we're aiming for approximately a week out, but it's possible it will come sooner or later than that.

Never heard of evad3rs.com before. Looks like it links to a twitter account. Shouldn't it also be posted on the iPhone Dev Team website?
 
Its a new team setup by old Jailbreakers. It's been mentioned a few times here. You can check out their evad3rs twitter (NOT evad3rs_jb) and see who is involved. But the main people behind this jailbreak formed this team.

edit - got beaten...
 
That is the new name of the team
it was all over their twitter last couple of days

Gotcha, I only have time to check on the jailbreak status 1-2 times a month (med school), so it's nice to have you guys to update people who live under a rock like me. Thanks!
 
wow I put this up a few days ago and I got public shamed for it! if you fallow evad3rs on twitter you can get all the updates.
 
Woof I'm having a hard time keeping track of all the tweet threads ;)

Planetbeing said about a week, Musclenerd insinuated Sunday Funday.

Rather than obsessing over a single date, I would set low expectations of by next week's end, and then be hopefully surprised when it drops much earlier :cool:
 
Sounds good.
No need to rush them, whenever is ready and fully tested.
We waited many months now. A few more days wont make a difference.
 
I'm glad this is happening, but it seems like the process is getting longer with every new version of iOS, which is expected I guess.

Let's see if :apple: can completely lock us out with iOS 7 :p

Getting closer. Just tracked down and fixed a rare stuck-on-boot bug. If only kernel memory layout was more deterministic!

Trijethero, with you around I no longer feel the need to check twitter, good news all around, now if i can find someway for you to check my facebook for me, then MR is all i need.

There will always be loopholes/bugs/exploits no matter how advance an operating system is. Only problem is how long it takes to detect it and use it.
 
This is iPhone 5 correct? Finally.

The "evad3rs" I see on twitter has 0 tweets...?
 
I've been thinking about how excited businesses probably are that depend on jailbreaks to install their apps. They will be finally able to offer their apps to the iOS 6 customers.
 
Since iOS 6 is gonna be supported,is there really any good reason to upgrade to 6.1?

You don't have to, but why wouldn't you want to? 6.1.0 has bug fixes and improvements over iOS 6.0.X

I believe their first tweet will be when they release the jailbreak>

Agreed. Though, I wonder why they don't just put their updates on @evad3rs rather than all individually tweeting sporadic and cryptic things :confused:

Why would you care? the less time they spend on twitter the more time they spend on coding ;) *fly's away checking for any new tweets*
