It looks like the lawsuit is going to be settled out of court. The exact details are being worked out but Stardock is satisfied with the proposed settlement.
Stardock's position remains the same: Companies who want to use our formats have to license them from us.  Much like skins and ports - you have to get the skin author's permission to port them.  TGT Soft's lawsuit asked the court to make a declaratory judgement that it could use our formats without our license.
BTW, if this had "gone to court" the "winner/loser" of this wouldn't be something that could be posted for years because intellectual property lawsuits can take years and years to go through the system. This was relatively early in the dispute.
There will be an announcement when the settlement is completed.
