I'd just like to say that from a legal standpoint Petey is on extremely thin
ice here.

Gargano-speak. He got caught advocating 'cost + compensation', in direct
violation of the usage agreement, so now he want's to call that old
equation simply 'cost'. Spin-doctoring.

Yep, let's see, that 'small group of uncaring' would include the entire
diyWB development team, and their supporters. How 'uncaring' of the
donors especially, to give out freely the fruits of their long labour,
with just one proviso, which you choose to piss on; namely 'no commercial
exploitation'. You're the true humanitarian here, Peter. No question. The
diyWB developers are just a mere bunch of 'uncaring individuals'. Your
'story' gets more amusing every iteration.

Let's see, in particular you didn't just 'garble' the 'non-commercial'
message, you have intentionally set a precedent for any future pirates
like yourself to waltz in after a major project is done, and stick your
proboscus in and suck up. Your message Petie, is about 'helping
yourself', as in 'help yourself to the goods'. What a truly optimum
environment for future diy developments. That's what I call 'helping
others' alright.
Add to that the fact that Peter appears to know next to nothing about how
the circuit actually works, being a 'programming type' himself. :) Good
luck on support from a tick that doesn't even know how the cow makes the
milk he's sucking from the teats.
Hey, I'm just trying to keep our precious newbies informed. :) As long
as you post this self-serving commercial propaganda Petie, you're going
to get called on it.
