Till mentionned he did a "quiet chat approach", but had no answer from them. What is the possibility for such an approach if they simply don't want to answer ? Contacting the FSF and the GCC "team" doesn't mean hard actions, it's simply to take advice and signal the violation. They can then ask Handspring for explanation, and if no answer take more "robust" action. I don't think the FSF would jump on HS without other attempt to resolve the conflict and without fair warnings. -- - R�mi - Remove ".nospam" for mail copies of the answers
