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.

Would I be correct in understanding that you are
intending to retain the
QRpedia website and presumably brand? If so presumably we will need a new
brand for our QR codes and should stop using the term QRpedia except when
referring to the site currently used to generate QR codes?
Given how well-known - and respected - that name has become, that
would be a terribly retrograde step.
