Only thing in German law I could imagine is that he could withdraw some
of his work. Which would require him to pay everyone what it is
currently worth before the ban can take effect and make it impossible
for him to allow others to use it. Anyone knows some reading if there is
any other possibility and if this possibilty is even applicaple to
software?
