Well yes I think so. They've been trying and you won't listen. OK, they
don't want to look like the bad guy and alienate all of their old customers
who are a vocal bunch to say the least. So let's cooperate with the
movement. But maybe we can put so many restrictions on the licensing that
they will finally give up and go home. And we don't look outright
unreasonable.

And this is my $0.02
