So... what are you worried about?


That's okay. Signed-off-by: by original author is not required for
mainline merge. All that is required is submitter legally getting it
under GPL, and signing that off.

Now.. what are you worried about?

a) Copyrights?

b) Patents?

c) Trademarks?

d) Trade secrets?

e) Contracts between Shem and ...?

f) Some other contracts?

g) any other applicable laws? which?

h) anything else?

i) anything you can't talk about because NDAs or similar?

Based on the answer, we can try to figure way forward. 

('power_now' is really useful for me; useful enough that I think about
reverse-engineering it from tp_smapi and reimplementation. Maybe even
doing it chinese-wall way if I can find second interested person. But
I need to know what the concerns are. ...plus, I guess Ciaran can help
with legal questions....)
