I don't see my exodus as 'wimping out'.  I proved, over and over again,
that Chris' grasp of the GPL is poor.  I pointed out many - admittedly
tricky - ways to make a profit with a GPL business model.  Either the
feedback is absorbed or ignored.  It seems that some parties have
absorbed it, that Chris isn't uniquely in charge of the whitepaper.  I
feel I've done good work for now, am patting myself on the back, and
moving on to other matters that are in more need of my attention.

I'd very much welcome a 'ping' once the whitepaper guys have gone back
to the drawing board, made some new investigation about the GPL, and
have offered a new draft.

20% of the world is real.
80% is gobbledygook we make up inside our own heads.
