Curious, what was the legal holdup? Fio being a new project to
contribute to, or just getting it out in general. If there's anything I
can do to make this easier in the future, let me know.

Most of these can be applied directly. I need to double check 8/9, but
apart from that, all looks like they can be directly applied.

They seem to be mangled a bit, however, there's line wrapping going on.
Would it be possible to resend with that fixed?
