The point is that you need to PROVE that your code is not based on the previous code from the author A who did not accept to change the license terms of his code. I hope am I wrong but I think you're sub-estimating the possible implications of it. Cendio can say our code is derivated from their code and we need to PROVE it is not. Not the opposite. -- Otavio Salvador O.S.
