What happened to rxTools?

I saw a post somewhere about 3DS exploits of old and somebody mentioned rxTools with the general tone of "we all know what happened with that." What happened?

Somebody created a modified version of rxTools to remove all signature checks, Roxas had a hissy fit over this and had decided to make the source code open-source. He then left the scene afterwards.

quite common on the scene, scene drama is not new, someone makes good stuff, restriction/doesn't want to release/still brewing, get's released/hacked/leaked, dev leaves and uses a new handle

I also saw references to a Pasta CFW in that discussion. Did that have any associated drama or did it just fizzle out?
