nUboon2Agepopey: it looks like there were some freedom v. nonfree issues in that controversy since google bought and then buried etherpad.com and ietherpad.com looks like it was a response to that action.23:34
popeyno23:34
popeyietherpad was just _one_ of _many_ opportunistic people to setup an etherpad instance23:34
popeyietherpad.com didn't do anything especially amazing23:34
