I wonder how the engineers on these projects feel. To work really hard on something just to have it thrown out due to "business reasons". Must suck.

Seems like most of the projects that get the axe have been neglected for a while first. Probably no one is really pouring their heart in to these things enough to be too upset.
Every project I've touched has withered and has been cancelled (except for one, but it has only been out for a year). I'm convinced that it's my super power.
I've been on a couple projects that got the axe. Doesn't bother me, I still got paid.
