Least Authority July Update

[Florian Sesser]

Hi Greg!

  - Is it intended to be in the Apple App Store?


Yes.

  - Will it include GPLv2 code?


No:  This uses the new Haskell client libraries which have permissive
licenses (3-Clause BSD, LGPL, etc - most of the code can be found at [1]).
The Private.Storage Mobile code base, on which this is building, is
licensed GPL-3.0-only with an additional permission for app stores [2].
Greetings,

Flo
