So basically, the devs have released a soft fork to freeze that one contract and keep it from withdrawing the funds after the 27 days elapse. They are also considering a hardfork to reverse that one single transaction
The question to me is why would someone invest serious money into DAO when the devs can revert it whenever they want.
I don't know much DAO/ETH implementation details so I might be wrong, but if something like this should be possible without 51% consensus it would be terrible.
