Hi Mark,

I'm happy to see that the feedback I've seen for v1.1 has been 
incorporated into v 1.2. I believe
this version should work fine for the distribution/ports/packages use 
cases I can come up with atm.

For all the cases I can't come up with, it's good to see that there is 
an upgrade path built into the
license.

cheers,
