Please, let's not continue this flamewar.

Let me say that this was not a "zero-day" publicity grab.  The rdesktop
team have been aware of the copyright violations since 2003.  I made
contact with terminal-services.net on a number of occasions, and was met
with deceptive tactics.  Despite repeated promises, nothing was done.
Most recently Peter/Cendio have been talking to 2X (which acquired
terminal-services.net), on behalf of the team, and that didn't seem very
fruitful either.

We were rather fed up with being disregarded, and I don't blame Peter
for making it public - which did, by the way, have the intended effect.
