I apologize for the way I presented this. No offense was intended for anybody. I won't follow up in sage-flame, because it was never my intention to start a flame (I don't think this discussion has turned into a flame yet, neither by me or others, but I can see it has the potential to become one). I think licensing issues, although painful, are quite important and don't qualify as flames. BTW, I use latin words not to sound fancy, but because I think they may convey a message I want to share. Note that as english is not my native language, I've got some handicap wrt finding the correct english words for some things I want to say. You may want to factor that in when reading my posts (I mean, when I actually use english). OTOH, there are many latin expressions which are very commonly used in english (more commonly than in spanish, I'd say). I hope that this will be, as per William's request, my last post in this thread.
