And I ask again -- do you see any reason why the whole rant accusing Marcus of copyright violation should have been aired so widely, including landing in your mailboxes? This one paragraph you are interested in, but the rest sure does not concern you. So why did he not privately contact Marcus, but felt he should show a lot of people -- including you? Does knowing this is happening benefit you? Or was it grandstanding? Or accusation? Or a lynching? The vibe is rather anti-BSD. Yes, it will get solved. But the vibe is very GPL rah rah rah, right? Since Mickael chose to include you I might as well ask you as well -- Do you feel that Marcus should give up his efforts? It sounds like a fair question for me to toss out to everyone, since I was originally mailed... in a public place. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
