can you please stop writing such stupid sentences? Notice that I do not talk at 
all about the particular license issue.


I'm not talking about license issues either.  I'm just saying that if
you are the originator of a feature then you get press coverage twice:
  the 1st time when you initially release it and then a 2nd time when
another project copies it.  We're seeing that now.


A specific example, Ars Technica, on the LO 4.1 release:

Your comment there doesn't help anyone.

Headline:  "LibreOffice 4.1 is released, borrows new sidebar from
OpenOffice /  3,000 bugs fixed in latest LibreOffice, many by Apache
developers. "

Personally, I think it is an advantage to get such press coverage.
Maybe you disagree.  But since this is a thread about press coverage,
such observations are entire on topic.

A few people in other project do the same stuff as you do and maybe you can 
fight with them in some mud, but why mud-spraying all the people in this 
mailing list?
