The terms of a settlement are kept confidential if they would embarrass or harm a settling party. I wonder who would be embarrassed or harmed in these cases if the terms of the settlements became public. There is definitely something philosophically contadictory about a closed-source settlement intended to preserve the open-source-ness of software. Somebody wants to hide something. Who -- the defendants or the SFLC? It's hard to tell. -- Rahul http://rahul.rahul.net/ _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
