Tokyopop question

Does anyone know if these Tokyopop series have been confirmed one way or the other, as far as whether or not they're getting cancelled:

Genju no Seiza
Tactics
Tokko


I figure I should check before I actually start reading any of them.

Actually, has there been any sort of final safe/cancelled list from them?

And on a quasi-unrelated note, rightstuf finally sent me shipping confirmation on the volumes of Antique Gift Shop(which I always want to mistype as Antique Cake Shop...silly near-identical titles) that I ordered months ago.

I have to wonder if there's going to be any official finalized list of cancelled Tokyopop titles for a while, because just this week there were announcements that two more OEL series are being dropped--and TP seems to be leaving it up to the creators to do the announcing, not making any statements themselves.

Genju no Seiza does have a new volume scheduled to come out in a few days, and I haven't heard of any delays on it yet, which is a marginally good sign?

I've been wondering if there was any kind of list, too. I only read several of their books, yet it would be nice to know if they're continuing.

In particular, I want to know about Aria. It's already been dropped once by Del Rey, it would be extremely disappointing if TokyoPop picked it up only to drop it before completion, too. I doubt another company would give it a third shot.

I have a recollection of reading somewhere that _tactics_ is not canceled, but I don't remember where I saw that, so I don't know how reliable that info is.

I've seen a few things on the AnimeonDVD forums about various solicitations for October/November having been cancelled by the publisher. However, this doesn't have to mean an outright cancellation of a series; it could just be a postponement. At least, that is what I hope.
