Could someone kindly give a status update on when will we have a real-world, usable CoinJoin (besides the implementation on Blockchain.info)? This thread is huge, and I'm sure many casual readers would like to see a tl;dr to learn will this result in a usable client soon, or what's the plan?
I found the thread when reading this article from 7 months ago. What has happened since?

I'm still actively working on the implementation I have started Coinmux. I have taken a break for the last month after spending 3+ months working on it nights and weekends. Hopefully there is a Bitcoin God that wants to offer me a job to work on it full time.
Themgp, that looks really interesting! I'm sure others wish you could work on it full time, too!
How far away is it from being usable for an average Bitcointalker?
The main problem right now is getting an available set of users to do a CoinJoin - the idea doesn't work if no one is using it. I think if i had a few weeks of solid work on Coinmux, it would be something where a user with a general understanding of bitcoin addresses and public/private keys that wanted to increase their privacy would want to use it. Hopefully I can find the time soon.
