I Am Not A Lawyer, and I don't doubt that the P9 foundation can
get good lawyers.  But, once _ownership_ of the copyright was transferred
to the P9F, they can do what they want with it, including publishing
under the MIT license.  There should not be a need to involve Nokia
any further.

My two cents.

And apologies - I don't mean to start a long discussion about
licensing. I'd rather let P9F worry about it (and throw a few $$ at them
to help).  I suggest we all do the same. :-)
