1 Hi all,
2
3 some of you may remember that almost all the Linux distributions had
4 problems with the ion3 (a famous tiling tabbed X11 window manager)
5 developer (Tuomo Valkonen) and his weird license clauses, that was
6 becoming impossible to maintain packages for ion3. Some time ago Tuomo
7 abandoned the development of ion3 and removed the problematic clauses
8 from the license, giving rise to some nice forks.

10 I'd like to add anion3 [1] to gentoo-x86, that's one of the forks,
11 licensed with GPL-2, according to its authors.

13 Objections?
