LC Bug Survey Metasurvey - Ranking Criteria

[Eraklis Pittas]

I am going to throw a fly in the ointment here.

We have to ASSUME the BEST but plan for the WORST.

IF LC Ltd  could not carry on for any reason - anybody here will know the
details

Is there an ESCROW for the Code, is there a Plan B - iis there some code
where someone else
will be able to setup a "local" activation server - just asking for a
friend.
