It appears that the A5 untethered jailbreak will truly be a team effort with saurik making some major contributions yesterday.

Last week Pod2g announced that Planetbeing, MuscleNerd, and P0sixninja joined his effort to release an untethered jailbreak of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2.

Today, MuscleNerd noted that the team has received some major contributions from saurik.

props to @saurik for major contributions to the A5 version of @pod2g's untether yesterday! (still no ETA, but moving forward)

Pod2g also thanked planetbeing for his help in escaping from the sandbox.

And greetings to @planetbeing for the coding + research. Really great stuff to escape from the sandbox.

As usual we'll continue to provide you with the latest news on the upcoming jailbreak. You can follow us on Twitter, Facebook, RSS, or check out the new iClarified menu bar app.

Those looking to jailbreak the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad 1, iPod touch 4G, and iPod touch 3G should use the iClarified Jailbreak Wizard for the correct instructions.

UPDATE:
Pod2g has also addressed the request that the untethered jailbreak be released to developers. He previously revealed that there is a working jailbreak that requires a developer account.

Sorry, we can't release the A5 for the developers, the exploit used have to be kept secret. I know this is unfair.
