All of these projects have been moved to Github, and the person who is requesting for transfer of ownership has been caught selling emulators on App Stores without authors' permissions.
I had to basically pressure him for over a month to finally make his Android port of Genesis Plus GX free before he would finally succumb. You can ask the original author Ekeeke too if any of this is true - https://code.google.com/p/genplus-gx/ I would kindly request you keep these projects 'slated for deletion' still - since his prime intent is making money on these ports and I wish to have no involvement in any of that. And if he really needs the source, he can get it from Github (where he will of course never be added as an admin for the aforementioned reasons). Lastly, his only commits date back either months (in Cellframeworks' case) or he was just never active in the first place. He has exactly nothing to complain about - that he even got made co-admin of SNES9xnext (a repo I created) is something he can attribute to my friendliness in the first place, and nothing else. VBANext was my project - my idea - and Halsafar just tagged along to see if there was any money to be made there - he didn't even release any pre-emptive Android port yet because it was not yet a worthy money- making venture as it performed under 60fps. So I sincerely hope I don't see that project being transferred to him anytime soon just like you did with SNES9xnext just now - also consider that these projects are potential legal minefields as all of these emulators have non- commercial licenses attached to them and obviously by selling them on App Stores 'porters' are paying exactly little to no respect to that. Only after lots of pressuring did I finally get Halsafar to start requesting the original authors for consent to sell derivative works on App Stores, and even then in a few cases his rationale was 'If they don't respond - it shows they don't care and I'm allowed to sell it'. So sorry, I'm not going to have any involvement in any kind of shady business activity especially when it involves defrauding original emulator authors' work.
