Re: Licensing, again

["Carroll, Andrew" <andrew.carroll@okstate.edu>]

Markus,

You can try to sign off this thread but of course you won't because
winning the conversation is of more importance to you than actually
taking the time to get to a resolution.  That's probably why your
attempts at "the right code" never work; because YOU miss the point not
them.

Case in point:  This wasn't your thread in the first place.  Stop trying
to be the hero.  It's best to just leave it alone; which is what I've
been trying to tell you for quite some time now.  Besides, just trying
to win the conversation shows how much you LACK insight, not how much
you provide it.  

Case 2 in point:  You said "Don't be so modest. You _deserve_ an answer,
even if it costs me_my valuable_ time."  You'd trade valuable time just
to save face?  That doesn't sound like a hero.

Insights?  Don't flatter yourself.  I'm sure if you shut your mouth and
listen more you would make some progress and actually come up with
something insightful.  It's okay little buddy, keep trying, you'll get
it some day.

Regardless, I'm glad you are giving in.  Good luck to you, you'll need
it!

Now on to bigger and better things.

Your information in the 3 July 2006 posting was understood and a great
answer.  I did not mean to imply that the wiki is useless.  I think
George's post on July 8th better explains my feelings than anything.  I
read the link when you posted it, the second time and it wasn't the wiki
or the link but the way you came across.  I apologize for my rude
response and implying that the wiki was useless.  

In my work I am required to explain things, not just provide a link and
as such I had the expectation that I would get something other than a
link back.  My oversight is that c.l.a. is not my work place and I
cannot expect the same things; even if they are explicitly stated.
Unfortunately, Ludovic, with respect to our interaction / relationship,
other people piped in when they really shouldn't have.  

Lastly I apologize to everyone on the list (other than Markus, of
course) that I've drawn this out and also for implying the wiki was
worthless.  This will be my last post on this thread, regardless of what
everyone replies.
