Apologies for the crosspost, but it is a bit of a humdinger of an
announcement ;-)

So we're back from LinuxWorld in San Francisco (where we won Best Open
Source Solution, woo-hoo!), and things have been moving at 1,000,000
miles per hour in Mamboland. If you follow Mambo, you've probably been
tracking some of the dissension within the community after the recent
formation of the Mambo Foundation by Miro Ltd. Tonight, the core
development team has released an official response:

Please visit here for updates on our future, and be sure to join the
new forums to participate in our ongoing discussions with the
community.

We can't say any more than what is in the official statement right
now, but we have retained the services of the Software Freedom Law
Center and will be providing more details about our plan shortly.

ALSO: If you're not familiar with the SFLC, it doesn't get much
better. Here are a few of the people on the SFLC team: Eben Moglen,
Lawrence Lessig, Dan Ravicher, and Daniel J. Weitzner, director of the
W3C (World Wide Web Consortium).
