Thanks for the update which you seem to be celebrating (if I read you
correctly). For those like me who are legalese-challenged, does this mean
that Cloud Innovation's resources are now effectively revoked? If I
remember correctly, all of this started with a notice that resources were
to be revoked at a certain date on the basis of non-compliance with
the RSA, right?
