I'm not sure why you've attached your top-posted comment to my post; but to be clear; my purpose is not to apportion blame, nor to make criticisms I'm interested in correcting a false impression that has been given in the media of a dispute which did not occur. I'm delighted - and relieved - that agreement to transfer ownership of QRpedia has been reached, and have been calling for that for sometime. However, I don't wish to "move on" until reasonable efforts have been made to correct the aforesaid false impression.Your support in this endeavour would be welcome.
