No. The only thing I was talking about was that if you should have the audacity to publicly proclaim "loopholes" in the process and that you intend to use them, I will block your account.
In my eyes, the license change does not have to be 100% perfect. If we apply diligence, and are seen to apply diligence, and still a few copyrightable bits and pieces slip through our hands and end up in the new database even though their authors didn't want that, then that's not too bad - we can fix that when someone complains. As long as we try hard to do the right thing, that's good enough in my eyes.
However if someone blares on the lists about having found a loophole, and planning to use it, and we stand idly by, that's certainly not "trying hard to do the right thing".
And that's why it is a hell of a difference if *you* copy tags from a non-agreer node to a new way in the future, or of someone else does it.
