If the deal is not done then you DON'T put it in the Ubuntu Store, period

Sign the papers first

Of course, since Canonical did that, they should try an amicable solution.

No, it's still more complicated than that.

From Ed's posts, it was originally placed in the store as a promotion related to a Humble Indie Bundle.

For context, this is the Humble Indie Bundle's announcement that all HIB5 games, including Super Meat Boy, would be available for download from the Ubuntu Software Center for HIB owners: http://blog.humblebundle.com/post/24981005928/humble-indie-b...
