For the past few weeks, BC has been negotiating with the development team and this is still ongoing. The code is owned by the developer.
This project has been dragged into mud and dirt by the so called community. Threating dev family only pushed all the developers working on this project away.
Also bassguitarman pretend to be a licence officer and threaten to sue viorcoin if the project was not shut down.
I hope we are (mostly) reasonable people here and if they are some maniacs (I don't want to name them now) who threat it should not be globally generalized. Best thing is to ignore any such a psychopaths and focus on communication with the rest of community.
On the other hand devs performance and communication was far from optimal so to speak. I still hope we can find some common ground for further development here.
