As Quim said, the members of the community that this directly affected, the authors of said packages as well as community council, were informed about it.

The action taken wasn't because of a simple article either.

It was late on a Friday afternoon/evening when this all came down... not exactly the best time for these sorts of issues. They decided to act fast with the knowledge they had. Also, as I said previously when there's a possibility of legal problems, you don't usually go out and talk about it all over the place.

The most important things here is that:

a) Action was taken swiftly.
b) All involved were easy to get a hold of,
c) All involved agreed to the action taken.

If there's anything else the community needs to know, Quim and Peter will tell us.

I'm sorry there's not some big news announcement about the takedown of the emulators. This is probably down to the fact that a decision has probably yet to be made as to whether or not the emulators should be in Extras on a permanent basis.

Let's see what Monday brings, okay?
