Re: [Opencxx-users] update on symbol lookup

[Grzegorz J. <ja...@ac...>]

Dear Stefan,

This list is for OpenC++ related issues, while your e-mail is about 
Synopsis. You refused to share your contributions under OpenC++ license 
and prefer to keep them under GPL in Synopsis. Fine. However in this 
situation I hope it is clear to you that contributions that go to 
Synopsis are lost for OpenC++ (although not the other way around). In 
such circumstances please show a bit of consideration and do not use 
this forum to attract people from OpenC++ to Synopsis. I hope you 
understand it, since I would hate to use moderator privledges as you did 
to my e-mail on Synopsis mailing list.

Having said that, OpenC++ is always open to any form of cooperation, 
promotion and exchange, provided the benefits are mutual.

Thanks
Grzegorz
