Good news from the Ipernity Members Association (IMA) today, 15 July 2017, for those Flickr members who are also on the ipernity website!

"Dear members,

We are absolutely delighted to share with you that the legal basis of our IMA goal to take the Ipernity platform over is achieved:

Ipernity S.A. (represented by Christophe Ruelle) and IMA (represented by Eric Desjours) signed the contract regarding the transfer of the Ipernity platform, the underlying intellectual property and associated rights from Ipernity S.A. to IMA.

We can share in short the following details of the contract and next steps:

The price for the transfer is 1 €.
IMA will cover 12,000€ of costs that had been incurred by hosting and maintaining the Ipernity platform during the negotiations.
Codes and passwords are being handed over as we speak.
IMA has a 15 days withdrawal right.
Ipernity S.A. will then start the transfer of the accounts of Amazon, Paypal, Google, etc.
Other necessary legal processes will follow.
The transfer process will be finished end of July.

We will keep you informed!

Best regards, William and Eric"

"Some fungi are prone to exhibiting a curious phenomenon—they exude beads of moisture, called guttation. In several polypores, such as Fomitopsis pinicola, the liquid produced can look so much like tears that you'd swear the fungus was weeping. Or maybe sweating. Other species produce pigmented drops that can look like milk, or tar, or even blood."

"Guttation, a term used in botany to describe the process by which plants excrete excess water through drops from their leaves. For some mushrooms this is so common that it is a reliable identification feature."
