You just don't get it, do you?  Both you and he have spent several years
continually disparaging, perhaps even slandering, many people in the free
software field, including Richard Stallman and Eben Moglen.  That can
have a price.  What Alex T has now grasped is that slandering people and
things in the free software field isn't just a harmless game.  It damages
not only feelings, but reputations and even profits.  If he, for whatever
reason, becomes some sort of "quoted legal expert", his head is well
above the sandbags.

My post about AT was NOT "behind his back"; it was in a place where I
fully expected him to see it, which indeed he did.  It was not libel,
since it was not false.  Note that Alex posted it here on this mailing
list twice in full without passing any comment on it, or challenging
anything said in it.

Oh, I do.  But I understand that with rights come responsibilities and
obligations.  I also believe in "equal responsibilities"; something which
probably is outside your comprehension.

For the gander, yes, but not for the cockroach.
