Another one with convient vision
He wanted a open source to his module. Sounds like he didn't wanted it copied.

Model of the world is to make money. Not to make a big sharefest.

He gave a lot of proprietory software to the developers for free. As for publicity, it doesn't matter if the people will not purchase your goods.

My problem is GPL is supposed to help the little guy, and it ends up helping IBM. Your GPL has been hijacked. You guys are hopeless.
