Our biggest beef with her was the calous, rude, unprofessional way she went about it. If she had taken a writing lesson from you it may have ended differently, or even better...taken it up with A_C one-on-one.....To be quite honest, if I was attacked like A_C was, I would have done the same thing he did just our of spite to her!! She never proved her cause, so why should he have giver her all his work instead of closing shop and starting from scratch?

Granted the codes ruled said he should have shared, but he claimed he missed that point, and if he did or not isn't the point, she went about it in an entirely wrong way!!!

Thanks for being professional in YOUR posts though!!

I should have RTFA. I essentially just shot off my mouth here and at xda after reading the most recent pages of the relevant threads. Hopefully things come to a good solution for everyone involved. I just wish people would realize that GPL isn't like some bogus proprietary licensing crap. It's a great way for the creators of code or anything else to benefit from building on those who came before them and letting others build off of them. The only reason there is a license in place is to prevent people from getting greedy and writing commercial software based off of that which was freely given. Let those assholes deal with licensing issues based on their abuse. That shouldn't get in the way of the legitimate community like the one here.
