Yes, I received your previous email.
I am not the project leader or main contributor for Grisbi. I was surprised
to receive your email.

I forwarded the email to the Grisbi -devel mailing list at
http://listes.grisbi.org/pipermail/devel/20190221/002949.html but got no
feedback. The list is in Cc: this time.

Grisbi is not a company, not even an organization. I don't think Grisbi has
a legal existence.
I can't take the decision to join the OIN on the name of Grisbi.

Maybe other participant in the Grisbi project will speak up this time :-)

Regards,
