Gzz was originally GZigZag and was dual-licensed at Ted Nelson's request
to be distributed under LGPL or the Xanadu Public License, at the user's choice.

The version 0 of the Xanadu Public License grants no rights whatsoever;
it is a placeholder for later transcopyright licenses that Nelson wanted
to do but seems not to have gotten around to.

Later he broke off the cooperation and is now saying that he will not license
the zzStructure patent for use in Gzz because he is now working with a 
corporation
to make a proprietary version.

At the same time as we remove the code covered by the patent, we're splitting
the project and removing the XPL option from the licenses.

Ok?
