Where's your code, Mr. Mouse?
Almost all of it is up for anonymous ftp from
ftp.rodents.montreal.qc.ca.
But it's his, to do with and to distribute as he
pleases.
Everybody keeps saying this as though it somehow makes it all OK.
As I remarked in a response to Cameron Kaiser,
[...], and
after Dave said he would release the source when he was
good and ready to (his right, I might add, and even though he
doesn't have to justify why he wants it that way, he did),
His *right*, feh.
The SOB who does the work gets to choose what he does
with it.
Certainly. And everyone else gets to think more or less of him for it.
As far as I can recall, the only thing I said that was critical of Dave
was that his distribution policy took him down a few notches in my
eyes. (Well, before he got mad about it, at least; since then I have
criticized the way he reacted too.)
