Loyal followers of flipz know that he recently got married and has quite a busy life outside of the developer community, which accounts for his long absence.
As he states, "My personal life has been insane and I simply haven’t had the time but I spent my Saturday in the country with nothing but a slow aircard and this emerged!"
Some notable features of Fresh 4.0.3 for the EVO 3D include:

If you previously owned an EVO 4G and ran Fresh, you know that the ROMs flipz creates are among the cleanest and most stable, so it's great to see him finally developing for the EVO 3D. As a perfect example, flipz does not consider the ROM ready for public release yet, although he listed no known issues that are caused by the ROM.
