Yes, I have reviewed the discussions in the past, but I will make sure I am
caught up and refreshed. I don't want to rehash anything, which I'm sure I
probably have already... That being said I think the proposal is very good,
I just had a few suggestions based on some research, and am eager to see
the comics proposal go live.

Yes, I'm actually trying to be very conscious of the licensing, so I'll be
happy to clear that up. Since I produced this originally as part of my
master's thesis, and the Ohio ETD system requires an author to select a
copyright or licensing option, and I opted to take my full rights on the
thesis itself---I didn't want there to be any question of rights regarding
usage of the Ontology. So, I am doing an official transfer of rights to a
registered Limited Liability Company with the next minor version, and
formally selecting an open license.
