Why do you continue to attack me?
Do you really believe that this helps?
Repeat with me, Joerg.
"No one is attacking me."
Just because you did not read it to it's end does not meanthat he did
not
attack me. He write that "I am pissing him off".
That's no attack Joerg. That's a statement about himself, not you.
If he said something like "Joerg is a moron" that would be a personal
attack. No one is saying that (at least, not me, nor him). He is
simply stating, instead, that your behaviour makes him feel nervous,
which is something different from attack.
Please, please, please: stop *always* assuming bad faith from anyone
that is not immediately agreeing with you. We asked this before and we
ask this again, and we will ask it until it happens. Please. That's
the *main* block to be surpassed if we want this to be a reasonable
thread
(The other is your admittedly elusive attitude to release fully
details on what happened, both on your webpages and this thread -for
example, we still have *no* link about the supposed attacks you
received *before* the relicensing, despite repeated requests for that).

In fact, this happened around y2004. I received a patch that was
intended to add UTF-8 support to mkisofs.
Unfortunately, the code quality of this patch was lousy. It
tried to incorrectly initialize a structure and it handled only
a few obvious cases. Many important issues with UTF-8 support
have been completely ignored. As a result, I rejected this patch
because I do care about code quality (I still need to be able to
maintain the code in a few years). The people in the Linux
distribution could have fixed the problems and created a useful
solution but they did not do this.
Now these people have been in trouble and needed an excuse for
their behavior. They created the fairy tale that there is a
license problem in cdrtools. They created a network of
"cooperation" and supported some people which created a fork of
cdrtools based on the fairy tale.....
