Hello Chad,
If you work with PHPUnit testing and not with the WETE or derived work then this does not applies to you. It is indeed something total differed.
So Chad sorry for this inconvenience. It does not apply for you.
I spend a lot of effort and money in improving the quality of MediaWiki extensions with the WETE. Not only for me but for the whole community. Without receiving a donation of any kind for this. For a small company it was a huge investment.
It was a kind of thank you from me to the community what MediaWiki has done for me. With an amount which was really huge and what I had never done before and I will not do it again. But I felt this community is really special and I had warm feelings for it. Unfortunately some people disturbed this feeling for me. Still I believe the behaviour of some do not represent the whole community.
The only think what I wanted back is recognition. With the abuse this was snatched from me.
Legally I am forced to reply on the same channel where I notice a abuse of the license. If I would not do so I would lose my legal procedure.
So Chad I hope you comprehend. Again sorry. It applies only for the WETE and derived work. Not for PHPUnit.
Good luck with testing.
With regards,
Bernard

Dear all,
This is to inform you that unauthorized use of the WETE testing environment, or derived work from the WETE, is illegal, no matter which new name (MediaWiki testing seems to be used now) is given to the testing environment.
The Open Source license has been temporarily withdrawn due to abuse of the license. For more information see http://extensiontesting.wikiation.nl

The unit tests referred to in your linked post are written using PHPUnit, not in your testing framework. No need to freak out.
