Simple Mobile apps have been very popular among FOSS enthusiasts. I've personally been using the Gallery, Contacts and the Phone app since a few years now. It's a shame that it has come to this, will be on the lookout for their forks.

His original comment of not wanting to fork to respect Tibor's decision to sell his users out doesn't make me confident in him.
I'd like to think he was just trying to be respectful of the author, probably having worked quite a bit together. But he changed his mind pretty quickly when he saw the original author had totally checked out. Maybe that's a generous reading though.
Maybe he wasn't even aware of this until everyone else was and got blindsided too. I'm still wary but I'll give him a shot.
The linked statement is ridiculous. Fork the hell out of it before the repo gets removed!
