No, in fact, you said the exact opposite:

(Emphasis mine)

You were saying? Could you do us all a favor and try to figure out what point you want to make before posting?

You're not thinking straight about this Thomas. And I'm upset in a literal sense, yes I am.

Oh, right. I'm not being reasonable. What exactly am I supposed to "work out"? Oh, hey, SwissMicros, you clearly didn't pay attention to the license under which you're using the code that I wrote, but hey, no problem?

The unreasonable party here is SwissMicros, and everyone defending their illegal actions. Yes, I really resent the implication that *I* am in any way unreasonable here.
