The Gentoo charter was revoked, so in the eyes of New Mexico, it does |
12 |
not exist as a legal entity anymore, and thus does not have the |
13 |
privileges that go with it. Unless the Foundation specifically passed |
14 |
the rights on to some other legally recognized entity before it ceased |
15 |
to exist, then the transfer of rights being nullified would return the |
16 |
rights to Daniel. I'm not a lawyer, but that is my understanding of how |
17 |
it works. If you can find some laws that say that this is wrong, then |
18 |
super duper. |

At any rate, all of the points I have made still stand. ;) |
