[LAD] Impro-Visor packages now on SF

Hi,

After numerous back and forth emails with the Impro-Visor guy I realized
there was no way to get through to him. This was even after a number of
people on the Yahoo group for the program sided with him and I set them
straight on the facts. Each one of them changed their position, but this
guy would not despite any statement of facts, evidence, etc. So no point
in trying to reason with unreasonable people.

Thus, I have started a SourceForge project to host Impro-Visor stuff (yes,
with the source code) and possibly a new line of development on a fork.
Right now it is just important to make the binaries/code easily available
for everyone (as guaranteed by the GPL). Only the last stable version is
up at the moment (version 3.39).

If anybody wants to join the project feel free, even people from the original
project are welcome because this is about opening it up, not taking it over
(which is sort of a slam I received from that guy when I let him know that
the application binaries/source would be hosted on another project).

I wanted to cooperate with people, but it was just too difficult for them to
admit being wrong. So instead of just posting the source code for their
latest preview, it was pulled. In spite of all their protests that they were
completely in the right, the application was removed. Basically, an
admittance that the GPL was being violated. Anyway, I still have that
preview and the source code (via disassembler) and can possibly still put
that up a little bit later.
