Ok Catalyst obviously have done a full reply to ICV2.com’s allegations about their ceasing publishing the original post was that Catalyst gaming labs had ordered several/All stores to stop selling merchandise in regards to Shadowrun and some of their other products as this press report (quoted below) states CGL has NOT stopped all items instead they have stopped the publishing of certain books that have issues with most likely outstanding payments required to be given to their authors or at least parts of their authors.

ICV2 is a great website that rapidly compiles information across the width and breadth of the gaming industry, as it occurs, and tries to provide a single source for all such news. However, there recent report contained some factual inaccuracies.

First, there has been no halt to sales of any CthulhuTech products. We’re are in negotiations with our friends at WildFire for how best to move forward, ensuring this great book line continues to grow. As such, neither Catalyst Game Labs, nor WildFire, have put a stop to any books from being sold.

Second, the stoppage of a small, select list of Shadowrun books has nothing to do with the license for Shadowrun, which Catalyst still holds. Instead, the halt to sales is due to on going negotiations between Catalyst and its freelancers. We’re moving quickly and thoroughly to resolve this situation to mutual satisfaction, so the community can have access to these great Shadowrun books in short order once more.

So as we can see Catalyst is moving ahead in regards to this.
