How does this militant attitude work alongside your preference for the BSD license? If another free software developer is violating your license, would you publicly shame someone who is probably working for similar reasons to yourself, or would you give them the benefit of the doubt and give them a private "do you know what you are doing?" email and try to work things out like gentlepeople? I know of at least one GPL project that violates the license (BSD) of some code that I wrote. If I ever cared to enforce that license then I would certainly be polite first. -d
