Nope. I never talked about the Linux Foundation at all.

OK, how about the corporate masters you routinely shill for violate free software developers' licenses regularly, so it doesn't matter because the community can't do anything about it.

Can we end this here, please?

This does not seem a productive use of anyone's time.

Let's just stop this here, please.

thanks,

You seem very confused. I have zero association whatsoever with Linux Foundation nor do I work for any organization associated with it. I do have some experience getting free software licensing issued resolved as a volunteer distro package maintainer and developer for several years and that's the perspective I am sharing here. The enforcement of licensing requirements if the authors of the library care enough to do it has to initiated by them. I don't see any evidence at all for that. That's my point.
