Because I'm not part of the Cabal (TINC).
Seriously, it's the contrast between a meritless lawsuit and no
lawsuit at all. Meritless lawsuits are expensive; we'll get back to
you after we IPO. Ask the css-auth victims...
(I guess I'm missing the reason why it's so hard to get people to
explicitly say "you can link this against Qt"; that apparently would
satisfy the FTP maintainers and let KDE 1 into contrib [and KDE 2 into
main]).
