"Scanlations" removed, text translations made avai
Since DC confirmed the previous press release, I've removed my "scanlations" from the site, and put up links to the text only translations. I haven't disallowed access to the tracker yet, but will do that in a few days.

You'll notice that I posted exactly that in the "DC Licenses Tenjo Tenge" thread. Text-only HTML translations are derivative works, but very useful for people that have imported the manga, and do not cannabilize manga sales IMHO.imwin wrote:Waah, unauthorized translations are just as illegal as scanlations
Fugu,
Do you still intend to make text only translations of the later volumes as they're released? Although scanslations are generally easier to read, good text translations are almost as good. As I'm importing the manga at the moment and still intend to do so, I was just wondering if you were still going to be translating or if you're canning it altogether.
Cheers
EDIT:
Apologies, I notice you have already answered this question elsewhere. Just ignore me
While I'm at it I'd just like to say thanks for the superb job you've done to date with Ten Ten.

Mwah, licensing sucks, it'll be months until I will get the German translation of volume 11, not to mention how long it will be until newer chapters will be available... that was the first and foremost reason for me to download the scanlations, because I hate waiting months and months and months, just to get a manga where the translations seems to be quite far away from the original.
Anyway, thanks for the great scanlations here, what a pity that they can't be continued anymore.
