Not quite true. Nokia Legal asked if we wouldn't mind removing it from maemo.org (since they were the legal owners) and with jacekowski in the loop, the Council complied.

We also offered to act as intermediaries with jacekowski and Red Panda to see if we could find a way by which they'd be satisified maemo.org was distributing a version which didn't contain any source or binary references to the algorithms on which they allegedly hold the rights. jacekowski never took us up on the offer :-(
