Project Longevity Questions

[GLeeM]

I have, in the last few months, hit major Milestones in most GPU projects. I want to plan on which projects to move to the next Milestone - 250M. So from 100M to 250M could take a while and I want to pick projects that will be around for a while.

I think it was about a year ago (might have been two years) that Milkyway was having funding problems and had said they would have to shut down.
Is there any word about how long they will keep going?

I think I read somewhere that PrimeGrid's GPU sieve (I think it was the high paying GPU project "Proth Prime Search Sieve (PPS-Sieve)") was going to run out of work relatively soon. Does anyone know how soon that is?
I was thinking maybe I should get the easy points while they are still there.

I might still continue Poem (currently at 92.5M) while there are still lots of easy to get WUs, but am concerned it will go back to very few and hard to get WUs like before!

Has anyone heard any rumors about any GPU or CPU projects?

I don't expect PPS-Sieve to go anywhere for at least a year.

Proth Prime Search (Sieve) will be sieved to optimal depth. Currently sieving 6M-9M and will likely transition to 9M-12M.

I had a quick look at MW@Hs main page & forums, couldn't see anything about funding.
The summer 2014 funding campaign was to keep them going for a year, so in theory we should be hearing about another campaign very soon!

Anyone else know more?

MW was recently a project of BitCoin Utopia, raising additional funds there as well.
