I noticed that Magma VSR is no longer available on the official Nomad Factory website and Don'tkrac[k].
I am a big fan of Magma VSR.
Will Magma be discontinued?
I have recommended Magma to many friends.
I believe Magma is an excellent plugin in terms of its concept and performance.
I sincerely hope that it can be upgraded to support new platforms and improve its GUI.
I would appreciate your consideration.

That would be a shame if it's actually gone, as Magma is something that I really wish would be fixed as it crashes on my PC whenever I change the presets or minimize the GUI. I don't even need a fully updated version, just a bug fix...

I contacted support directly and received the following reply.

We put MAGMA offline temporarily for the current Nomad promo.

MAGMA is on our todo list to be upgraded ASAP. It’s a big one as it contains 65 plug-ins that all need to be upgraded with our latest framework. We are doing our very best to upgrade all Nomad products in a timely matter. It’s a huge job, but we’re on it...

Development of MagmaVSR is continuing and will be updated eventually.
We do not know the priority of development, but we hope it will be updated in the not-too-distant future.
Fortunately, it works fine in my environment, but Magma VSR is currently the oldest version of the NomadFactory plug-ins and has stopped being updated.
Therefore, there may be many problems in the current environment.
I believe that a public beta will be released before the update, so if you have a bug that concerns you, you can report it on the forum when the public beta is released.

I was a beta tester for Magma in 2015-2016. There were bugs in the latest version 1.6.6 and then sadly Bernie passed away. After that happened things just kind of went into a state of uncertainty.

I'd be happy to test any new versions as I still have some of my notes from that time period.

I'm guessing that after stability issues the biggest request will be for larger GUI sizes (as is the case with all the old NF plugins).

P&M Chainer was also being tested. Very promising plugin. I see it can still be downloaded and authorized.
