Hope of reasonable discussion was lost when you immediately trotted out the insults and personal attacks, despite several peoples' attempts to keep things civil. For anyone still watching, I prepared a concise summary of Sven's behaviour in d-legal here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2004/07/msg01308.html I will admit it may not be the most conservatively phrased article, but bear in mind it was written after being one of the butts of Sven's invective for nearly a week. - Matt
