To be fair..

Well duh! What else could they say?
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06

Just who paid for this study in the first place?
Laff | 11/17/06

$50, Don
Yagotta B. Kidding | 11/17/06

Wrong, even the poster above knows it.

I notice you couldn't point it out
Yagotta B. Kidding | 11/17/06

Hey fool, see my post below.
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06
|
|
It was OSRM that commissioned the study
NetArch. | 11/17/06
|
|
Sorry, the FSF PAID for the study.
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06
|
|
Not what I found
NetArch. | 11/17/06

Next time, do some research...

No need to sue, the threat is enough.
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06
|
|
Maybe
tombalablomba | 11/17/06
|
|
No ne will do that.
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06
|

Just a matter of principle
tombalablomba | 11/17/06

Buwahahahaha, no, not when it comes to money.
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06

So what is your point
tombalablomba | 11/17/06

Linux User 1 | 11/17/06

What the OSRM (not FSF) review found
NetArch. | 11/17/06
|
|
Doesn't matter, you are avoiding the facts.
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06
|
|
Oh, just give it up, shill
NetArch. | 11/17/06

So you finally agree, there is PATENTED IP in it.

Stop misrepresenting the study

You better read it again.

This si what ghe author of the "283 patents" claim said:

Read it, re-read it. I'm still right, and you're still wrong.

You should have read what the author of the study said!

Seemed well reasoned to me
NetArch. | 11/17/06
|
|
Of course it did, just like your claim that
No_Ax_to_Grind | 11/17/06

Don, why do you lie in public?
NetArch. | 11/17/06

Lie? No, not a bit.

Of course they wouldn't go to court
