Why not re-submit the 3 you have on ambisonia.com?

I should state that all the existing stuff on ambisonia.com can't be
automatically brought across because there will be a proper (and
different) licensing agreement on the new site.... and ambisonia.com
will eventually be brought down.

That's not correct ... I hope to keep the forum and wiki on
ambisonia.com (not the torrents).

Etienne
