The googlecode page of pro cfw (http://code.google.com/p/procfw) is now back online, and I just had a very interesting chat on the subject with Coldbird.it appears that the pro cfw google code page had been “turned off” earlier today by Google, as part of a “witch hunt”. It is basically unclear to me what they were after, but apparently they turned off a series of “abusive” projects (what do they mean by abusive? DMCA type of infringement?) today, and procfw was part of the projects taken down.
Where this becomes interesting is that Coldbird contacted google and asked them to explain why the project had been removed. After a thorough verification, Google concluded that there was absolutely no reason to shut procfw down, so they kindly apologized and put the project back online.
Don’t you love it when a story has a happy ending like this? And google, I still love you, no hard feelings, we all make mistakes
