Hello Tony,

Someone needs to
- check and make sure that all the code is GPL compatible since I don't
remember if I used some incompatible code/libraries. I think the code is
OK but we need to make sure.
- Change the documentation and copyright notices inside the code to
indicate that the code is now released under the GPL license
It's not terribly complicated but it can take a little time, specially
if one is not familiar with the GPL.
Note that the code is in Visual Basic, from Visual Studio 6 if my memory
serves me well. There were some portions in C but I think that was for
the registration key checking, which has been removed.

Thank you for helping me help the Newton community!

Laurent
