@GC: I can understand your point of view. However, I would like point out that you base your opinion on what you read online. And yes, I have behaved like a zealot myself in the Flarm
discussion. I realize that.

I do not agree with Max at all on this subject, but I did not want to bother this group (which is about soaring) with another discussion about software. I suspect there are others like me.
Please understand that Max is not representing every single open source developer.
