i think that the mods didn't cancel GZ, but will spring it on us when GZ arrives.

How can someone send you a mail informing you of a really serious legal issue concerning this "something" when you've not even told the community what this "something" is?
Ground Zero is a project rather larger than you'd realise and has input from people that aren't necessarily members of this community. The issue is serious because experience has taught me to consider it serious until proven otherwise. It is for this reason that the team have taken the decision to cancel rather than run the risk by continuing. We are looking into this in a very careful and considered way, bearing in mind that something of this nature should not have come up and we still feel is either confused or basically groundless. Until that is unequivocally resolved we have adopted this path.

Sorry Soul, I'm not sure whether I was supposed to say that or not. I hope you'll forgive me for playing it safe.

I would just add that this still begs the question as to how said legal intruder found out about such a thing. Whether this is spread across more people than we can see, or still contained within the moderating team, it would appear that there is a 'leak'. It is a great pity that all of the hard work so far has been postponed before it can be revealed, but whatever the true meaning of GroundZero, hopefully at least some of it's essence will come forth in the fullness of time. I will also say that I agree with what Swimmer posted earlier in his rather cryptic ways. Also, if there was ever any possibility of legal ramifications when it comes to the project, surely you guys must have noticed it in some shape or form, unless this is a completely outrageous legal case. I would also like to wonder why you are unable to say anything about what is going on, because unless this is pertaining to a serious case, surely there must be no reason as to why you have legally been silenced.
However, after all the nit-picking, my condolences. It is an uttermost pity.

Seriously don't even joke these days, a C&D can basically destroy a modding community. Just ask (what's left of) SSP.
I for one have my doubts, viral seems to be the in thing...

From what I know, I can see one or two things that may have some legal ramification due to the insane times of today and political correctness, but otherwise, I cannot see anything that would cause something this major.

1. Right now we know very little in the way of hard facts in relation to the issue in question.
2. What we have chosen to do is precautionary until we do.
3. If this is sorted out then GZ will still happen.
4. As I have said there are several people outside of this community that have an involvement, we think this is where this issue has come from.
5. We are looking into this as we speak.
6. We believe that there is a misunderstanding on this issue by another party and that this is wholly groundless.
