Please report any additions/corrections as to what I've posted here. The small bit -not- in quotes is my note concerning the color coding. All else within quotes is from the slides.

There is explanation here of legalities, contracts, etc. that should explain why this took so long to state to the public in the plain english that the public desired to hear.

@ssolie

If you want your email deleted from this post just ask please, but it seemed to me you are requesting contact, so...I included it for now.
