I don't know about Europe, but around here civil lawyers are not a free
government provided entitlement, and they are really expensive! (Probably
even more expensive than ball room dancing instructors.) So our options are
(a) some real lawyer volunteers to help us out or (b) some flightgear
supporter (or group of flightgear supporters) pool together to purchase the
services of a real lawyer.
Neither of these options has happened which is why we don't have quick
access to real lawyer support when these discussions come up. We have tried
to contact FSF lawyers in the past, but again, without dropping a big bag of
money on the table, all we've gotten is a very cursory look and a very
generic opinion (which amounted to something like we haven't come close
enough to the threshold to raise any of their alarm bells.)
Best regards,
Curt.
