Although we are late in reporting the fact, within days of announcing the demise of Bodhi Linux it is announced that the distro will continue on as the torch has been passed on to other volunteers. Distrowatch has again added it to their Distro Ranking List and lists Bodhi's page as being in "active" development.
As the handing-over maintainer, Jeff, says:
Bodhi 3 will happen at some point, but they don't have any firm time lines right now. Thankfully - all the delays mean E19 "stable" has been released and will be the default desktop for the x86/64bit releases. I'll let the new folks post updates once they get all my build scripts sorted and start getting pre-releases out to test.

I don't run it currently, but I always enjoyed Bodhi Linux when I did, and I thought it was the best implementation of E17 out there. I'm glad to see it's not going to die off. I do wish it was based on Debian instead of Ubuntu, but no distro is perfect. ;)
