I didn't say that, what I said, if you had given me the courtesy to read the reply I had the courtesy to send you was "the ASF protects individuals against action being taken personally against them by itself being the owner, and licensor of the software. It is therefore a duty of all commiters to ensure that nothing is" If you contributed your mailet, and *if* we chose to accept it, there would be nothing anyone could gain by sueing *you*. You would have granted a perpetual and irrevocable licence to the ASF to distribute your contribution under the terms of the ASFL, and therfore they would have to sue the ASF. We would be unlikely to accept a contribution that was likely to result in legal action, but we're certainly not going to reject a contribution which is entirely legitimate, no matter what commercial interests it might annoy. Consider how much httpd annoys Microsoft, should the ASF be nice and stop distributing that?.. hell no! d. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
