Dave

I'm sure everyone here appreciates the work that you and the Google
Code team
put into this wonderful Google project. I see that the question was
posed
on a Friday, and you followed up on Monday. Thank you for your
responsiveness.

IP-transfer is a difficult/complicated process. Best wishes for your
team in developing
a protocol for continued development of projects.

All of that said, this is an emotional thread, and I hope we can
ratchet up our
sensitivity toward your team, and toward your users.
