ArsDigita CEO & VCs Sue Philip Greenspun

RM writes "ArsDigita, its CEO Allan Shaheen and the venture capitalists who
took over ArsDigita Corp., the company that had everything to be the coolest
company on earth, are sueing Philip Greenspun and two other co-founders of
ArsDigita (Eve Anderson and Tracy Adams). The lawsuit was mentioned in this
post to Philip Greenspun's site. Since the VCs took over ArsDigita, many of
their best developers and staff have left the company or been fired, and now
they are sueing their own co-founders, who gave the company its vision
(which seems to be going down the tubes) and the profitability it always
had. Sad, really sad."

Two comments:

1. (replace-string "Philip Greenspun" "Rohit Khare") ?? :-)

2. Some seriously deep dish in the posts -- they start getting good about
1/2 way down the list of posts.
