[PD] rjdj is gone, robotcowboy is coming ...

Thu Nov 1 18:08:23 CET 2012

i'm not sure i understood correctly.

you say you left out [expr~], [expr] and other GPL code
out due to licensing issues, but i'll still be able to use/modify
GPL patches.

Hmm, will we be able to add these objects with a path of sorts,
or are they strictly off limits?
