Any news about this?
I heard CIYAM (the developer of AT for NXT) was upset with the core devs of NXT and won't implement his AT to NXT. But nothing more than that.
Is he thinking about including it to NFD?
Yes, NFD is one of the candidates Ciyam is considering if Nxt is not using AT. But AT needs to be put on the testnet to test first. They are working on the testnet right now.
