I'd hate for any unwarranted heat to be brought down on a great free-ware project like Calibre! Aside from the risk of bad publicity, even a frivolous and merit-less legal issue could be a terrible drain for the Calibre team.

Calibre is not in trouble at all. Calibre has nothing to do with stripping DRM. Other people wrote the plug-ins for stripping DRM. Kovid is staying away from DRM stripping and thus, he and Calibre are free and clear.
