The ultimate aim of Wikiation's Extension Testing Environment (WETE) is to provide the best possible testing environment for MediaWiki usage for developers, hosts and users of the MediaWiki software.

Unfortunately, due to serious abuse the WETE extension testing has temporarily been withdrawn from Open Source licensing.

A proprietary claim to WETE Open Source license has been done on none-legitimate grounds. Such use of any work of, or derived work from, the WETE, is illegal, no matter which new name is given to the testing environment. Despite appropriate legal notifications the abusers persist in there abuse, and refuse to comply with Wikiation's demands. This unfortunately creates a greater delay, and further legal steps are required.

For the moment, further development of the WETE is temporarily stopped to prevent further abuse. Wikiation hopes the development of the WETE can be restarted and continued with its original Open Source license as soon as possible. Wikiation apologizes for this inconvenience and strives to solve this issue as soon as possible.

Open Source development of the WETE has temporary stopped by serious abuse. When this is solved Open Source will continue. We do apologize for the inconvenient and the delay.
