Personally, yes, I (Peter) would like to you do that! I am sure Steve may also find it useful but I don't think this is something that needs anyones permission. I also think it will be reassuring and healthy to get a range of legal opinion on the license from different perspectives. I think we should be getting a TV company (ITV? BBC?) to check it for their purposes, a publisher for their purposes etc etc but I don't believe any of that is happening so we need to take offers when we get them. As you may be aware we (at ITO) are doing a review which should be available to the community by the end of the week. If you are getting a formal review done, then I suggest you let Jordan know what you are doing and when your review will be ready so he can optimise his plan around the incoming suggestions.
