    What do we (mortals) actually know ?

    - Laire rewrote/ported MUI3.8 to PPC (ca. 2001) thus creating MUI3.9
    - Stuntzi licenced that version Hyperion including source for compability reasons only (ca. 2002)
    - Stuntzi with the help of others updated it to early 4.0 versions
    - Stuntzi had some fallout with Genesi over outstanding payments (wether he wanted to be named on morphos.de hijacked by Zapek is unknown)
    - Stuntzi uses/used a great deal of his freetime for extended bicycle tours across the world, seriously reducing the time he could spend on MUI
    - Stuntzi objected to the recreated MUI4 not needing a keyfile (if he objected to the whole thing is unknown)

    What we also don't know:
    - how much work did Stuntzi invest in MUI in the past ±10 years
    - how much of MUI4/5 has been done by other team-members
    - do those team-member have in stake in MUI's copyright, or is it still 100% owned by Stuntzi



    In essence, all we can say is that NotMUI4 isn't 100% compatible and versioning is atleast confusing if not misleading.
