Hi Nathan, Interesting feedback, thanks. Certainly it was inappropriate to make an accusation that Gerard followed me to Commons. It probably is a coincidence that this is the first time I can recall that he has ever replied to an email of mine on this list. I am unsure how to interpret your feedback that I am misusing this list, against the following, could you explain a little further please? 1. "The Wikimedia Foundation lawyers have said that it is OK to host" - I would really appreciate a link to this legal advice, as it solves the problem entirely, as we can use it were there any future legal case. A similar claim was made during the RFC but nobody was able to supply a link to evidence at that time. 2. " Commons admins: You're wrong, now go away and get teh Israli government to disclaim the copyright they say they don't have. Reasonable people: But they can't!" - If this was not intended to be a parody, could someone provide a link to these statements, or where it was agreed that Commons admins are not reasonable people. 3. "When the party or parties who you INSIST have a copyright deny that they do like the Israeli government does, your whole argument becomes a puddle." - Could someone provide a link to where I "insisted" in this way? 4. "I have said nothing about the Israeli government, neither has anyone else in this thread." - I may have missed something, but my statement here was true from what I can see of posts on this thread.
