Fine. But then, why did you encourage me publicly, on Feb. 8th, to publish the sources ? In case you don't remember, here is a link to the thread, entitled "Data Acquisition with Octave": http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.octave.devel/6512/focus=39562 Personally, I was very reluctant to publish the sources because I feared there would be a legal issue. You are one of the people who convinced me that it is ok and that I should publish the source anyway. Specifically, you wrote: > There is no legal problem sharing your source code, as long as you > don't distribute binaries compiled to the non-free driver. The only > social problem would be encouraging more people to use the non-free > drivers instead of demanding a free driver from NI, but it looks like > your code is encouraging people to look into the possibility of free > drivers, so it's probably beneficial if you share it. So now, I don't understand your strong reaction.
