You're missing out all the fun :-). anon@anon.org is a real clown and can be quite entertaining. E.g. at http://www.hostingforum.ca/656771-there-can-only-one-gpl-3.html: | Based on the US and international contract laws. There can only be | one active GPL [...] | It does not matter that FSF states that there can be two GPL versions.

My best bet is, he is either Dan Lyons or this Wallace guy (who tried to sue against the GPL on basis of anti trust law of all things). Or there are more of this kind of jokers around. Anyway: Since he reliably fucks up any argument he tries, he's more an entertainment than a menace. Regards -- Markus (still laughing hard)
