For the download link instead of having to always update it you can just point it at this url.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ekeyfinder/files/latest

Well after consulting with legal sources, and an agreement between the DMCA claimer and myself/developers of EK. Basically we only have to rename the project unix name. That is the only drastic change.

I'll post here with the new project unix name when it becomes available. EK is not going away.

An open source project I currently develop is under attack with a DMCA violation. It is a baseless accusation because I'm still within my rights of the GNU GPL. Help me get the word out and post comments anywhere and everywhere.

This is not the Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder. It is the Enchanted Keyfinder.

"If the fork is portable we should either find the original application download and link its location for this listing, and consider listing the new fork, or consider replacing the original if the original is not maintained and the fork is portable."

The fork is available here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/keyfinder/files/v0.1%20Beta/

This is the original application (Not Enchanted Keyfinder):
https://sourceforge.net/projects/keyfinder/files/Old%20Releases/

When I forked this program I gave out the original GPL License sources from MJB because I had an extremely difficult time tracking them down.

I created the fork to further Keyfinder development.

Please do not directly link this file:
http://www.portablefreeware.com/download.php?dd=461

The Enchanted Keyfinder Betas are more stable than the original keyfinder.2.0.8.zip.

Again MJB Keyfinder is the original program. Enchanted Keyfinder is the fork. MJB Keyfinder is no longer developed. I am developing EK. Please refer to this page for more information:

I would like to point out that the download link brings up the following message:"Enchanted Keyfinder is a Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder fork. This will be community driven development. The logos will also be changed to avoid confusing users with the original keyfinder software while still citing its roots. "

I have not tested this and have not taken the time to track down the original application.

If the fork is portable we should either find the original application download and link its location for this listing, and consider listing the new fork, or consider replacing the original if the original is not maintained and the fork is portable.
