The issue with Hondata was settled amicably and all other details are confidential. Big thanks to Hondata for communicating and making this possible. Big thanks to my attorney,
Bennet Kelley, for his assistance. If you ever need an IP attorney in California, I can't speak highly enough of him. Intelligent, shrewd, funny, but still able to be cold and calculating when he needs to, as all truly excellent lawyers need to be.
I plan on becoming much more involved in what is going on here again (I was avoiding the site because of frustration/exasperation/etc.). I'm also actively working on restoring/upgrading the wiki. I've been doing a *lot* of development work lately, and I plan on sharing at least some of it.
I was OVERWHELMED by the generosity of site members. Around $8,500 was received total to contribute towards my legal expenses. I haven't received a final bill from my attorney, but I'm guessing will be at least two to three thousand yet to pay. The pgmfi paypal account (
pgmfi@pgmfi.org) has $8.14 in it. Spare change anyone?
Thankyou again one and all for your support through difficult times.
