Hi, John,

Keep me anon.

Arcadia moved into the design services realm, mostly "high  performance CPU"
consulting in Japan, and they stopped selling  supporting Mustang.  Their
investors brought in Kah Yee Eg to be the new  CEO to move them into an ASIC
strategy.  He's the former Synopsys Area Sales Director covering Asia Pac.
From there he had several successful entrepreneurial ventures based in
Singapore.  Under Kah Yee, Arcadia changed its name to Key ASIC.  Their
business today is  porting silicon IP for a Singapore fab.  Wei-Kong Chia is
the  original CEO and founder of Arcadia, and I believe he is still active 
at Key ASIC.
