I am not understanding you beef here. (2.62 / 8) (#9)
by Potential Recruit on Sat Feb 26th, 2005 at 01:48:03 EST
Could you please explain in plain terms what you are   concerned about?

You make a lot of vague innuendos but in trying to be vague you meander without making a point.

Here is what I get out of your article.

Some random person who has some information about linux history gives that information to grokline.

that information then ends up in OSRM who then gives it to SRA. Is that what you are claiming here?

Then OSRM sells that same information but they are not supposed to because the information was all licenced under a non commercial CCL.

Does the SRA also sell that information? Are they getting that information from OSRM or grokline?

Are both the SRA and the OSRM violating the non commercial CCL license?

How about Eno river capital? Are they also violating the license?

This sentense is very odd.

"Given a level playing field and full disclosure, OSRM have every right to commercially use the Grokline material in whatever manner it chooses. "

Why is full disclosure and a level playing field a requirement for the commercial use of the grokline material? Do you mean that OSRM is stripping attribution from grokline articles and republishing them or selling them? What kind of a disclosure are you talking about? Also what do you mean by full disclosure? Who has to disclose what to whom in order to make this whole deal legal.

Finally since you state that a full disclosure has not been made and a level playing field has not been established you are claiming that OSRM is doing something illegal. What kind of a crime are you accusing OSRM of, what are the penalties if they are found guilty, and do you have any plans now or in the future to press charges or press suit against OSRM.
