I don't think there's information about it anywhere, but only because there's 
nothing much to say.

HotCocoa was started by Rich Kilmer, and I can't speak for him but from what I 
saw he's very busy and doesn't have time to work on HotCocoa. In fact most of 
the work he did on HotCocoa was done when he was attending various conferences.

And well after Rich stopped working on it no one decided to continue working on 
it, that's pretty much it. As Laurent said it's opensource, it's on Github so 
if anyone wants to work on it, just fork it!

There was a time when HotCocoa was included in MacRuby, but there's no reason 
to continue including something that's not maintained anymore, and there's 
already enough work to do on MacRuby itself.
