You know that this is "Rufschädigung übelster Art"?

You should look at the video I pointed you at. You just accused me of
being a liar. If i would have your low level I would now do the same you
did with a co-maintainer of the Debian cdrtools package and threat with
a lawsuit if you dont take it back. I dont. I just add you to my ignore
filter and go on. Which means removal of cdrtools from Debian and later
readdition of a free fork.

Read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danese_Cooper *and* look into the
video I pointed you at. I even gave you exact times where to look.

Watch the video, the minutes I pointed you at. Danese, who was one of
those drafting the CDDL had some very clear words.

Yeah, you dont believe those people who have written the GPL...

As you obviously stay with your opinion and doesnt even consider stuff
people sent to you, including video proof, that would be a waste of time.
