I was referring to the Foundation obtaining counsel in advance of a |

move to something like SPI. |

Under the SPI Gentoo wouldn't need legal counsel, at least in the |
| 18 |
sense of Gentoo the distro. SPI would need counsel, but they already |

have it. Nobody would sue Gentoo in the event of a dispute, they |
| 20 |
would sue SPI. |
