I am.

hh.org is a project hosting service. (check my previous link to the archive 
where it plainly states, "projects hosted at handhelds.org"). This is what 
all of the Opie developers I have spoken to know it to be. Opie is not the 
exclusive ownership of the Familiar distribution.

I do not think Benjamin Long (bipolar - who actually started the opie project 
at  hh.org) ever gave hh.org ownership over the project name "Opie", nor did 
anyone else associated with the project. I certainly hope he gets in touch 
with the FSF, who is already looking into this latter.

Apparently, merely having your project hosted at hh.org is enough loose the 
ownership of your projects name without notice.
