I wonder what is wrong with Thorsten
He is stubbornly attached to facts and evidence.
Yet in another thread, I see him play down the importance of correct licensing, and in fact I have never seen him take a stand at all in discussions where copyright violations have been the issue.
For the record, here are you downplaying the importance of correct licensing (emphasis by myself) - giving lip-service to copyright once after arguing against looking too closely a few times before doesn't really make one more credible:
Edward:
So it is ok to turn a blind eye and to eliminate gatekeeping and all the safeguards, thereby possibly allowing illegal content to flow in, all in the name of creating a faster development model?
Vincent:
The answer is yes, and you could have made that up from what you quoted yourself.
(...)
It is much more fun to debate about details like copyright.
There's a couple of more points where the context is a bit longer where the link leads, but I guess I rest my case. I don't know whether anyone can make these various statements on copyright match to your quote later, but I sure can't. It's a strange world in which pointing out gross inconsistencies in a position argued amounts to slander or 'shrewd character murder' - I'm happy let the things you've said speak for themselves and let everyone draw conclusion whether you in fact downplayed copyright.
Also, I am not aware of any discussion in which you pointed out to the fgmembers proponents the importance of copyright - I guess that point then also stands.
