Ahhh, I see. I used the 'reverse engineering' as the general term of 'making something work using (in some way) a working instance and trying to replicate its behavior'. Didn't know that it could trigger bad feelings. > > I don't know if you can alter the ticket, but if you can, it might be a good > idea to make clear that we didn't violate their license. I've been able to "add a message" to the ticket, clarifying that when I referred to reverse engineering I meant using USB analyzing tools, not disassembling their binary code. Hope that helps :) Regards, L.
