May I make a small suggestion? I think we should really reserve judgement until we see something. While such projects are, indeed, often smoke and broken mirrors, occasionally you get a good technical team that is hidden behind a clueless PR front. Let's wait and see - so long as they havn't released, they can claim whatever they like.

In thier autogenerated response email, they say that they intend to comply with the LGPL, so my biggest question is, when are they going to release thier supposedly LGPL'd code? :P I'd bet there is a lot of Wine code in there, otherwise why would they write:The LGPL only requires them to provide the sources of what they distribute, and only to those they distribute to. In other words, as they have not handed out any CDs with the code just yet, they are not required to give anyone anything.
I repeat - let's just wait and see.
