Apparently it was not an AF joke .... or are they still fooling us? Anyway, it is lifted now.

I'm starting to wonder as well, because there are a number of obvious April Fools threads started today -- one suggests legalizing the types of signals used in all the cheating scandals, another suggests that a pair that did notoriously well in the Rockwell Mixed Pairs was using signals involving pickles.

BW has now confessed that it was an april fools joke and that there was no actual injunction (they had to temporily shut down for a server change).

There is a post from mid-afternoon that can be found in Featured Articles (or http://bridgewinners.com/article/view/injunction-lifted/) saying that a federal court had lifted the injunction.

 

You have to look further down in the comments to see where they admitted it was a joke.
