With that said, it is however very useful and important for these credits to be retained, and I have personally reached out to Dimitris Glezos at Indifex about this, and several other outstanding issues of concern. Indifex is putting priority on resolving these problems (including this one and the Google Auto Translate concern), and I am awaiting a quote so that we can look to enter into a financial relationship with Indifex to resolve these issues in a timely manner. ~tom == Fedora Project _______________________________________________ legal mailing list legal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/legal
