I'm not party to the negotiations, and of course things being discussed there could be very different to what has been announced publicly. But unless I've missed something Roger has publicly offered to give the technology and another domain to the community, however he has said he is keeping QRpedia.org. So we as a community need to discontinue using QRpedia as a brand.

Obviously that is unfortunate, but we should not look a gift horse in the mouth, what Roger and his associates have created and are giving to the community is very useful, we have no right to complain that they are being less generous than some might like.

Given how well-known - and respected - that name has become, that
would be a terribly retrograde step.
