Looks like they bought the remains of the xorp corporation.  Xorp
used to be BSD licensed, so they probably can do whatever they like.

That can't legally take later releases (ie, what I maintain)
w/out abiding by the GPL, but for their 1.6 related stuff, I'm
guessing they can do whatever they want.

 From their blog, they re-wrote xorp extensively,
so probably the chance of merging our xorp with the pica-8
stuff is slim to none.
