Well...not for lack of trying. Mike Pondsmith did a whole seminar on Mekton in 2018, and some of it covers the behind-the-scenes disaster that's been Mekton Zero. You can watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcWKCn…
Cliffs note version: Production software was outdated and required updating for licensing which went poorly, fonts got changed up, saves got corrupted forcing them to start the books from scratch, and the person who should've been communicating with the Kickstarter backers apparently decided not to. All of that on top of Mike going back and forth between RTG and CD Projeckt Red for Cyberpunk 2077's development.
I suspect we'll get a bit more work on it after 2077 and the Red edition of Cyberpunk drop, since Mekton is very much one of Mike's big projects.
