but question is where is the dev

From the OP, Chedigital and goldencrypto are developing a brain wallet app and manage the ICG website. Desil works on promotion and business development. Hectortilla and Fernando have contributed in the past and are likely still helping. According to a recent post there's three other developers working with the main ICG team in improving the wallet and adding new features. There's no main dedicated Dev at the moment but rather a collection of people helping.

Historically a develper would post when a release was imminent  as I guess there wouldn't be a point in making a concrete date for release if it relies on the cooperation of multiple people which could be difficult to manage. Although it seems that progress is being made so it shouldn't be too long before the announcement of a release.

Patience is key when investing in crypto-currencies but it looks like we won't need to wait long. As others have mentioned there's a lot of ways in which ATM implentation could be improved. Perhaps Hectortilla could expand the point-of-sale system that he had developed so that it could be used in other applications.

That's a possibility once other network related developments are released. Capitalizing on existing developments by making the features more useful is a sensible plan.

True, any work committed to increasing the accessibility of ICG to merchants or users physically located near the ATM locations would effectively make Incognito coin more useful in the real world, beyond trading. The decentralized development process should insure consistent progress even if unexpected circumstances slow down one of the developers.

Another reason for having access to a large developer pool is that they work on their own free time at their own expense with few exceptions. Not every member is able to consistently work but there's no single point of failure, resulting in developments being released regardless of a lack of participation from a paticular member.
