There's a doping thread in the general forum, we ahem* mostly talk about doping there, although it gets mentioned here a lot too.
I don't think the problem has gone away, it may be less of a problem or ideed the problem may have changed, as new drugs become available. Speculating about bike riders is like shooting fish in a barrel, there isn't too many riders you could point at and say 'I'm certain he is clean'.
You hope the UCI will take the lead now Cookson is in charge, independent testers, independent T&R Commission, greater budgets and better testing, although clearing Rogers isn't the best start, since it creates a double standard since Contador was banned for the same thing.
