Well, that's exactly what happens everyday. Welcome to the real world. :) |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
But that's irrelevant to our discussion, because I do not want a "web of |
| 14 |
pointers to copies". I want a single pointer to the (hopefully public) |
| 15 |
mailing list thread(s) where you discussed with Bloch and you were |
| 16 |
attacked by him. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Where is this thread? |

It has all chances possible. It is enough to bring *proof*. Not a |
| 25 |
billion copies of proof: just proof. That "number of copies" stuff is |
| 26 |
something you put into the discussion and that I never, ever asked for. |

I don't care about "credibility". I care about individual statements. |
| 45 |
As far as I have understood, the problem is not CDDL not being free, but |
| 46 |
being incompatible with the GPL in the particular build system you |
| 47 |
choose for cdrtools. So, I see no contradiction here. Maybe I'm wrong, |
| 48 |
but again, we want *proof*. |
