Well, could we please agree that this is all a misunderstanding?

 * Marco wanted to point out a discussion about licensing he
   thought to be of interest.
 * As it turns out, said discussion is very emotional and is
   considered unproductive by some of the developers. I am not
   offended personally, but I understand why others are.
 * People misinterpreted the intention of the email and replied
   impatiently which Marco thought to be rude. Nobody wanted to
   be rude, they just wanted to stifle the flaming that they
   believed to follow.
 * Flaming is grossly off topic, but licensing issues are not. I
   am always interested in such information.
 * Questioning Marco's grasp on the English language to stop a
   mail thread *is* rude.

Ciao

Dominik ^_^ ^_^
