Hi @bbobb, thanks for dropping in. Yes it was I who dropped a line on the Bitcointalk thread to raise your awareness of the SEC project.
We are in active development. Our roadmaps were published:
Safe Exchange Coin is the DAO that is developing a new blockchain we are calling Chille. Chille is an anonymous crypto currency blockchain coupled with a marketplace. Development is underway.
Safe Exchange Coin is an omni asset at this time: Omnichest.info - Property Lookup
There are no concrete plans to move it into the Chille Blockchain, that may change; however.
Our website: safex.io is continuing to improve because our development resources have expanded; meanwhile I am completely on the systems programming side.
Safe Exchange Coin holders will receive dividends from the Chille Blockchain from transaction fees, and they will have power to vote on development direction and spending development funds.
Originally we were planning to develop on the maidsafe network; however, that turns out to be not such a good idea and our community voted:

to go ahead with a plan that we build our own infrastructure to deliver our mission statement: An anonymous marketplace that no one can shut down.
We are active on our slack: https://safex.herokuapp.com/
Things are so fun for us (for me, our dev/creative team, and investors I spoke to) that we’re not going to be able to deviate from our path.
