I've been visiting the irc chans lately, and AFAIK, and what was told to me, is that there are two ways of getting cfw on the latest ofw:

One of the ways is by finding said key, the per_console_key_0. What we assume
is that per_console_key_1 derives from per_console_key_0, meaning that per_console_key_1 has a source on per_console_key_0, or in other words, the inverse of key_1 is key_0. Now, we don't know that for sure, we also don't know if there are further derivations of per_console_key_1, so it's a guessing game.

The second way, already achieved by one person, perhaps more, is pwning metldr. Many of you don't like the guy who has achieved that, but, truth be told, he has done it, and has inclusively given you hints on how to do it... His name is Mathieulh. If i'm not mistaken, the sum up of those hints is on ps3devwiki as well, under something entitled "Mathieulh Overflow Exploit". I suggest you take a good read at it...

Any corrections to what i've said would be apreciated and taken into account.
And don't forget twitter is a good place to collect info aswell.
