Ok so again what is extraordinary about I wont contribute to gpl
projects? That is hardly extraordinary, and I really do not think it
warrants this much time. I have answered people who asked privately
because it is not a proper venue for this subject. This is the
asterisk-biz list, this has little to do with asterisk anymore, and
nothing to do with business.

I dont think its that clear, because I am not the one throwing tantrums
because someone failed to justify their feelings. Nor am I the one
saying that someone is defensive by suggesting that this is not the
proper venue. All I have done is say that this is not the proper place
to discuss why I like or dislike a particular software license.
Making statements like you did to try to make mine seem less valid is
not only a poor debate tactic, but one that indicates desperation. Yes
I dont like the gpl, get over it, its a personal choice I dont have to
like the same things you do, that is what makes us unique humans.
I am thinking that this topic is too sensitive for some viewers and will
no longer entertain public comments on this list relating to my feelings
of a software license.
for anyone else thinking of jumping into the fray, step back for a
second and repeat 3 times - its just a software license its not a
religion.
