I had a response prepared - I've done research into DFU and the patent - I've experience and education in contract law - you have an off list email you can use to contact me if you prefer that route.

I think you are a basically good bloke (or at least not a bad one) (and I could say that to most people as a starting position when I meet them for the first time) - I'd like us to work together to do good things - but I can live with that not happening too. Certain base values can't be compromised.

When I last accessed the hotcopper website I intended to post this excerpt but perhaps how I accessed it or perhaps my frame of mind meant or perhaps some tweaking of the features of the interface of the site iteself meant I saw only an http link not an image to be taken as an image posted. I've re-read the HotCopper Terms of Use.
