Are you saying Shem told you he violated some contracts? Ok, so can you tell us the details, so that we can evaluate this ourselves, and (more importantly) so that he can defend himself? He seems willing to point where specific pieces of code come from. > And I'm not going to go around asking for code to be taken down, as I'm > not the one whose contract was invalidated. Right. So why do you care if this code goes into kernel? Your contract is not violated, and neither me nor you signed any contract preventing us from putting that code into kernel. If you know the details, can you tell us which/whose contract is being violated here? Maybe we can just get permission of those parties. Or maybe your information is wrong... > Ok, once again: > - we know this code was created illegally. If you know this, please share details. > So can we please just drop this?
