I do not at all question Mr Katins amount of work. I'm sure the work is
WORTH a copyright or two, but that's not the point. The matter is about
neglecting licenses. It's nothing "picky" or "bean-counter-ish" about
asking for answers. The whole open source community relies on people not
violating these licenses.
