It all depends on what's is best for you. If someone is ready to accept
or even caution anything as long as he makes some profit of it, he is the
least of Ferrengis :-), and becomes a bit despisable himself.
I do not question Daniel competence. But his software is not free despite
what's written, and as such, I would not accept the ambiguity nor the lie.
What is best for me is fresh air, freedom, and pleasurable people. Lars gave
me that, and I tried to return the favour. These are human values, and also
where my values stand. For me at least, software is not an end in itself.
