The way I understand it this is more about the fan-boy followers slinging mud where the two devs could have handled things between themselves. BD opened his mouth and Cyanogen did too(in similar fashion) and that's when the feathers started flying. I for one don't care. I love UD10 and will stick with it 'til it breaks or someone does better.
Actually, you are missing alot of facts.
1) Black Droid asked to be added to Rom Manager.
2) Then he noticed that there was a proffit (Koush was making money off rom manager) he asked to be taken off so that he could make his own version to sell. $$$$$

3) Koush Removed it for a minute.
4) The complaints started coming in from people, questioning why it was removed from RM.
5) Koush readded it, making it available as a free (no longer premium rom). He makes no money this way.
6) BD and his people came into Cyanogen Mod (Cyanogens site) and started all these threads talking smack about Koush and Cyanogen.
7) Cyanogen had nothing to do with what is on Rom Manager. He has his own Cyanogen Updater app.
8) Black Droid then completely ripped Cyanogens work and only credited Ruqqq, Chris Soyars and Wysie for their work. Completely leaving out Koush and Cyanogen and giving himself credit for their work. -Credit to BD
9) Cyanogen went on the forum and politely stated that
-First he disrespected him
-Then he stole his work and gave credit to himself. (Keep in mind that
Cyanogen had done nothing to BD)
original post
-Cyanogen gets banned for unmasking him.
10) The problems took off from there.
Keep in mind that they both did not start this problem. BD went after Cyanogen for no reason. Simply because he could not get to Koush.
So like Cyanogen said "First you spit on my face and then kick me in the ****." <----Where it hurts.
