I know everyone has been really busy trying to get F20 out the door - congrats to all involved! Now that it is officially released, anyone willing to pick this back up?

Regards,
Jeff

Hi Tom,

Below is Tuomo's response regarding the Notion license in its entirety. In short, he was not interested in modifying the terms of the license, however, he did confirm that the Notion satisfies the terms of the current license.

So, what's next? Is there anything I can do to help the process along?

Regards,
Jeff

Since you have obviously moved onto bigger and better things and Ion3(tm) has not been active since 2009, we feel that the additional clauses added to the LGPL 2.1 license are no longer necessary to avoid confusion with regard to supporting unofficial versions - particularly since you have officially stated that you no longer offer support of any version. Therefore we ask that you grant permission to the Notion project to distribute as part of the Notion project any and all Ion(tm)-related material, including but not limited to primary and ancillary code and documentation, under the terms of the official LGPL version 2.1 as specified at https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-2.1.html.

It does.
