Today we were able to negotiate an out-of-court agreement with Firstway Medien GmbH, which avoids an long and expensive lawsuit. Firstway agrees to transfer the trademark ŽeMuleŽ to the eMule Developers (emule-project.net) immediately. They also stated that they had no knowledge of the DDoS Attack against our server and will help to reduce the damage as much as possible.
With that we have reached our aim and no eMule developer or webmaster in germany has to fear legal attacks based on the trademark law anymore. We want to thank everyone who has helped us to reach this aim and in particular our attorney Dr. Martin Bahr for the night shifts.
