[For some reason, the newsgroup server seems to not have distributed the messages yet. Thus posting via groups-google now. first message was from 2006-09-27, second message from 2006-09-28, both with a CC to Andy Singleton] Ilias L. wrote: > > person to the Breakout project under the user-name “lazaridis\_com” > > my original code, tickets and wiki pages): > > You have removed a few (not all) of my commits from the repository… > > for your convenience, here is a list: > > [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/timeline?from=08%2F05%2F06&daysback=22&changeset=on&update=Update](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/timeline?from=08%2F05%2F06&daysback=22&changeset=on&update=Update) Mr. Singleton, within privat email (2006-09-28), you’ve replied that you’ve looked at the list and removed the original code. Additionally, you stated that it will be deployed after testing (to the production server). It’s a small amount of code (and configuration-file changes), so why do you need time for this simple task? After waiting one further week, I ask you once more to revert the commits from the repository and from the production server(s) (where my contributions are still active): Possibly missed during last revert: [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1323](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1323) Not reverted: [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1316](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1316) [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1326](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1326) [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1327](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1327) [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1328](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1328) [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1329](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1329) you do _not_ need to revert those commits (as they’ve been overridden by the update or contain irrelevant commits): [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1313](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1313) [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1314](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1314) [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1315](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1315) [http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1330](http://tools.assembla.com/breakout/changeset/1330) - I wish you good luck in further adopting “Open Source Practices” whilst bringing them to “commercial software development”. Hopefully your clients are aware of what can happen within public projects: a public confrontation. I am just one individual - imagine what happens if a whole community detects an abuse…! - One final tip: If you edit manually posts / your writings on a infrastructure under your control ([assembla.com](http://assembla.com)), whilst adding messages which you’ve previously posted:: “Also, I donâ??t want your code. I will replace any code that you wrote.” [http://assembla.com/flows/show\_comment/a\_Q598si0r26njaaeP0Qfc#showReply=false](http://assembla.com/flows/show_comment/a_Q598si0r26njaaeP0Qfc#showReply=false) do not forget one thing: The internet-caches (like e.g. google cache): “Also, I donâ??t want your code. I will replace any code that you wrote, that is not covered by the GPL licensing that applies to our Trac code, if I can find any.” [http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:15NB7Z3ufJIJ:tools.assembla.com/breakout/ticket/484+Simply:+what’s+going+on+here%3F&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1](http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:15NB7Z3ufJIJ:tools.assembla.com/breakout/ticket/484+Simply:+what%27s+going+on+here%3F&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1) - Note to readers: You can find the whole case here: [http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/Assembla](http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/Assembla) . ---

Seconded. Looks like viral marketing for either Lazaridis or Assembla to me. Any way this spam can be rejected from the ML and whatever it’s gatewayed to or something? ---

I admit it is difficult to detect that this post is in-topic. But it is. And the crosspost is valid, too. The key for it’s validity is within those two topics (to which the original post connects): [http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/Host](http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/Host) [http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/License](http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/License) [http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/Copyright](http://case.lazaridis.com/wiki/Copyright) I should have posted them immediately. . ---

We don’t need private license disputes (I think that’s what it is) flooding a publicly archived mailing list. ---
