You call > that a threat? No, he said that if wavefronts started getting around (i.e., ACT customers were giving them out despite Mr. Dewar explicitly asking them not to) then he would probably, but reluctantly, stop giving out wavefronts (to ACT customers, since ACT doesn't give them out to anyone else). > That is no more a threat than for me to consider > putting you in my killfile if your posts become > a waste of my time. If you don't think it's a threat, then how about volunteering to provide me with wavefront sources? I'm interested in comparing them against what's currently in the gcc cvs tree. > The only "threat" in that post is the hypothetical > threat that "some lawyer" is NOT making in the > next-to-last paragraph. Well, it certainly scared an ACT customer who I had lined up to provide me with wavefront source (because they also thought that open development of GNAT was a good thing). -- Forte International, P.O.
