This is great, but does anyone know what the current status of the actual DMCA takedown is? Has LayerVault rescinded the takedown? What a ridiculous ordeal this is.

By DMCA, the repository must be restored between 10-14 days in the event of a counternotice. Today's the 14th day.

EDIT: Technically, it's 10-14 business days, and today's the 10th business day.

Since Designmodo responded with a counter-notice [1], LayerVault would now have to take it to court.

I'm curious about this. Is it on a company-vs-company basis? Or could LayerVault just file another DMCA takedown notice challenging a different aspect?

Say LayerVault filed notice on file A, which made github remove the repo for 10 working days from counter-notice. When back up, they file notice on file B, etc. Would this be possible?
