Wrong. See below. Wallace filed two cases. This case is currently under appeal. > Also the same Wallace whose single case included a quote from the judge > saying the exact opposite of that, right? Exact opposite of what? > > Or do you think the judge was drunk (as you so famously insulted the > juridic system so often)? Uhmm. Let's see. Judge Young dismissed because according to him, Wallace "has not identified an anticompetitive effect". And yet his colleague Judge Tinder had no problems with Wallace's identification of anticompetitive effect ("By making certain software programs available to users at no charge, the GPL may be discouraging developers from creating new and better programs because they will not receive compensation for their work, thereby reducing the number of quality programs available to users. This may be considered anticompetitive effect, and it certainly can be inferred from what Mr. Wallace alleges in his Third Amended Complaint. Therefore, this court finds that the Third Amended Complaint states a claim for violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act, under the rule of reason doctrine"). So one of them must have been drunk (in the sense of having somewhat distorted view of reality). No? regards, alexander. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
