Google Search didn't turn up any decent results? Any news, wiki Github etc web site to read up on its development?

That's based on the Google VP8 library, not xvp8.

There was this, but it's not been updated in a good few months:

I heard a lot of things are being worked behind the scene. Now i honestly hope xvp8 work out. And more Hardware decoder will be available.

The latest news was post #415 in this thread (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1473245), but I assume you've already seen that, since you also posted there and were talking about it.

Ronald S. Bultje was hired full-time to work exclusively on xvp8 at Google, from March 2011 to March 2012. It will likely be up to Google on how public they want to be about development progress.

I think x262 (MPEG2) is on focus now.

The latest x264 development newsletter mentions xvp8 where it didn't before so maybe that's something. Also it looks like the x262 encoder has progressed pretty far so maybe there's more resources to put into xvp8 now.

The projects are developed by different people.

In the last week of March, Ronald S. Bultje started a new job as engineer at Google. "Rumor has it that I’ll be working on something related to video" (http://blogs.gnome.org/rbultje/2011/03/31/time-for-something-new/).
