I think the idea of the Kickstarter was to avoid customers having to pre-order and then have a long wait till there particular product reached the top of the list at which point they paid for it and it was shipped. I think I had a 6 month wait for my yoke (I believe now the wait is more like 4 or 5 weeks ? not sure) . The kickstarter would have provided funding to allow the first batch of orders to roll out immediately the design was right to go ahead.
They will still make it, it will probably just be the same process as the current yoke, put in a pre-order and go on the waiting list and when one is avaialble you pay for it and it ships.
