Any merits of the case aside, it would seem to me that Moglen, et al has 
bitten off a rather large chaw.  The staff

http://www.softwarefreedom.org/about/team/

at SFLC seem out numbered and woefully outgunned in this matter.  Presumably 
a loss here, and subsequent assessment of the legal costs of the defendants, 
would put their paychecks in extreme jeopardy as well.  That may be more 
than their nerves can stand, particularly in this down economy.
