Winamp deletes entire GitHub source code repo after a rocky few weeks

Plenty of people have copies of the source and the release was just a novelty really. There's no point in anyone actually forking, building and releasing new versions of Winamp as it has been surpassed by other "real" OSS players eons ago. Let's face it, the release was mostly for Internet historians.

Given the license, I suppose so. It'd only be for a tinkerer who loved WinAnp but wanted to fix some nitpick in the player. Can't do much more than that.

The bad faith interpretation is that this was an attempt to make use of previous goodwill to get some free labor to at the very least fix some bugs for them, or at most add in requested features to try to get it back on the map.
