Apparently, the DFL (Bundesliga) was behind it. Not sure what stream angered them. Or maybe they reported the wrong repository (lol).

Anyway, as some of you already know, this was a great well-maintained community effort to create a playlist of freely available streams. It would be a big loss if it's gone forever. And even if it only re-surfaces with a much stricter acceptance policy, that would be great.
