hi, first as i have already mentioned IMHO extortive means are about as productive overall it sounds like as those that were used by m$ that caused the DOJ case. do you really think dragging co kicking and screaming is productive to open source. extortion only leads to resentment and count me out. co should choose what they release at their terms.. did anyone force anyone to release code GPL. i think not! bully tactics are used b.t.w. in the m$ camp as well but lets move above that huh? Best Regards, dreamwvr@dreamwvr.com ps-if there is enough demand for a product and any co can see a business case they will release it. you need to communicate to them on that level not the level of a bully IMHO.
