The main aim right now for you is to deflect as much attention as possible away from the fact that someone was caught red handed putting GPL'd code into a BSD driver. That is why you keep harping back to the issue about Michael's approach to dealing with this. I understand why you might want to do damage control like this. There is also no way one can directly copy GPL'd code into a BSD driver, check it into a CVS tree, and have no idea what in the world one is doing. I don't believe that argument for one second. A developer working on a BSD driver for 6 months is oblivious to the fact that copying in some GPL'd code might not be a good idea? Give me a break. There have been some very clever methods employed here in this thread to control the path of a conversation. For example, you knew that if you gave the full URL for the Empathy article at Wikipedia, nobody would click on it and read it. Yet you used a tinyurl, and this had the psychological effect of making nearly everyone reading curious what the tinyurl pointed to, and they clicked it. You even got me with that one. - 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
