Thorsten Glaser



It seems like we really have another sociopath on our hands, or a lawyer,
I don't know.

Thorsten doesn't understand the difference between what he has
the right to do, and what the polite way is.

In every project I ever worked on, we've always been very careful to
not infringe on anything related to copyright and support. Yes, even
in free projects.

So, yes, Thorsten, you have the right to do a verbatim copy of the
OpenBSD ports tree, and keep the maintainer information in your own cvs
tree.  But this is definitely not the civil thing to do, especially after
we have told you repeatedly that we do NOT want our names to be associated
with your project at that level.

Do you understand the difference ?
You are not that stupid, aren't you ?
You just play stupid, don't you ?
(or maybe not, it's a known characteristic of sociopaths that they really
do not grasp human concepts).

Removing the maintainer information is just the polite thing to do.
We really shouldn't have to beg and definitely not to provide scripts
or patches for you to do so.

You pride yourself on being able to maintain a full copy of OpenBSD with
differences, almost by yourself, and you can't do a script to remove that
info in other two months ?   Frankly, that's pathetic.


Likewise, you still can post on this mailing-list and other
venues. And guess what ? We have every right to completely ignore 
you.

This is what I am going to do, and encourage everyone else to do
unless you fix your project RIGHT NOW.
