I've cc'ed Moxie. I think that he's simply busy making it better.

It's too bad that he won't make it free software - it would become the
golden standard. Moxie knows what he's doing. Anyone on this list with
funding should dump a metric ton of cash on him to share his work as
free software.

All the best,
Jacob
