Dear Friends,
thanks for your patience and sorry that I could not read any email for almost a week. Finally I sent all legal texts regarding the first suit. And as it looks I might probably win the case and currently I'm demanding back 1000 EUR, rather than paying those ridiculous unjustified 300 EUR to that liar and thief. Before I deal with the second suit again from Monday on (similar story), I finally have about exactly 26 hours of time for community work plus already did rest 5 hours. After some quick breakfast I start by finishing/polishing the DRM stuff from 2 weeks ago. You hear from me later today in a couple of hours / afternoon. As this will be released then (for further investigation by Sun), I switch over to the Thunderbird port. Thanks to everybody who wished me luch and success in personal messages, which I just saw :):):) Have a wonderful Saturday, till later, %martin >Вторник, 1 декабря 2015, 12:54 +03:00 от Мартин Бохниг <[email protected]>: > > >Hey Randy! > > >I could hardly believe what I just saw :) >I thank you from the bottom of my heart (also in the name of the overall >hardcore OpenSolaris community) for taking the time to deal with us here :) > >These thanks also go to Alan because presumably he helped in making you aware >of my appeal for help. >Sadly I can only continue on all these OpenSolaris related matters after >Wednesday. >I'm online only for a minute. > >But be sure that I release all the long promised things already mentioned >directly afterwards, after Wednesday asap in accord speed: > >{ >#0.) last week's KMS diffs, to be created >#1.)
