It makes sense I suppose, he meant the tools to be used only in Liberty because some of those functions performed by the Toolbox are paid for apps in the app market like his overclocking scripts.
 
Well the problem I see with the re-engineered rom is that the 'dev' of that ROM doesn't know the ROM inside and out like JRummy and Kejar know Liberty. And kejar and JR don't know re-engineered and what the 'dev' did differently. So any issues that arrise may be hard to troubleshoot.

That's not the only problem with the rom. The other problems with the rom are that the rom has serious problems. ;) I crack myself up, but it's true. :)

Well, I have to say I did try it, for a few hours only. I didn't really notice anything different besides looking like it was themed differently :D

Honestly, I think JRummy and a lot of the Android community have been acting in ways that go against the entire Android philosophy. It's about being open. It's about having the ability to take system files and edit them however you want. People are starting to act like it's a business world here. It really shouldn't be about keeping things from other people. Everyone should be sharing. The best ROMs will be the ones that take the best pieces from each ROM and combine them.
Just my two cents.

it is open from google. but when a developer takes that open source and puts a lot of time into it they become very proud of their work and it becomes their baby. They want to be the ones to improve on it and when another developer takes their work and spins it, they may or may not do a good job. its kinda like burger king taking a mcdonalds hamburger, putting their toppings on it and rebranding it.

Jrummy took a lot of time making the app to run with liberty and if other roms use it they may have bad experiences with it, which is not the developers fault. so closing it to his project rom makes sense to me.
 
I think if the dev went about it better he might have found his ROM endorsed by jrummy and kejar. Maybe not too but the execution of the release was poor.
 
Yeah... I just think all the drama over at XDA was uncalled for, and that developer did not deserve to be bombarded and insulted like he was.

not much man just chillin. lol.
someone took liberty's base and made some mods and redistributed it. he gave credit to kejar and jr but they didn't like it because people were coming to them with questions about a rom that they didn't know what was modified. It's hard to troubleshoot. The dev of the re-engineered rom was then flamed over at XDA and it was removed. Its back up on XDA it looks as though.
