Mark your notes: Sholes.info -> DroidMod.org [Update]

**Update: Personal account of the sholes.info drama here.

Frequent the custom DROID ROM scene? If so, there’s a high probability you’ve heard of the Sholes team and sholes.info at least once. First, a quick back story…

They are an awesome custom ROM droid development team that develops one of the best custom DROID ROMs. A few weeks back, the Sholes team, together with developer Scott Anderson released SMUpdater, an awesome auto-download/install app for Sholes.info ROM users. Long story short, there was some drama and it turned out that the dev wasn’t giving any of the donation money to the devs. As you can imagine, ties with the developer were split. (And my donation refunded). After that drama a few days ago, the ship seemed to be leveling itself. Then sholes.info went down.

Since I’m not actually in the Sholes team, I don’t know the full story. All that needs to be said however is that the site went down yesterday at some point and has stayed down. However, when searching for some answers, I came across this thread at AndroidCentral that pointed to a “new” sholes.info page — DroidMod.org.

This post is purely informative, put out there for all of the DROID users wanting to know at least a little bit about where sholes.info went and where things are headed. Look for continuing sholes ROM updates in the near future.
