Adrian: If this is accepted, I would assume that the source forge crew will
have no problems approving it as they could take the licence purely under
the GPL (but this will disallow standalones).  We'll have to explain the
situation to them and I have mentioned this in my email to Tony Guntharp.

Adrian: "A detailed, accurate description".  That's why.  Besides, it would
be best if we could come up with a better definition for those not familiar
with HyperCard.

Adrian: True.  I wonder what other questions they will ask... :)  Actually,
I will probably register another project with source forge as I have been
meaning to send it public for quite a while.

Adrian: Excellent.  Does anyone have any objections to moving to source
forge.  I must say I'm quite impressed.
