[ILUG] The old CD thread again {RHEL this time}

[ILUG] The old CD thread again {RHEL this time}

Quoting Paul Jakma (paul at clubi.ie):

You kept yammering about the "EULA's" GPL terms.  If you _weren't_ trying
to maintain that those terms somehow magically apply to the ISO contents
as if it were a work-in-itself (separate from title to the compilation
copyright), then what was your point?

I was making an honest effort to follow what you were saying, but some
of that stuff was a bit peculiarly worded, and I was in the middle of a
busy workday and had almost no time to spare.  Right now, by contrast, 
I have finally finished for the day (9PM), and -- hey! -- it's a holiday 
(3-day) weekend.  So, I sincerely intend no offence in saying this, but
I hope to ignore your entire pile of [non-]issues, get outside, and
enjoy myself.  I hope you have a pleasant weekend, also.

Conor assures me that you're actually a good fellow, and you only come
across as a monumental prat through some horrible cosmic injustice, so, 
tell you what:  I officially owe you a pint of your favourite.

I also officially don't give a damn about the rest of your two recent
posts to this thread (the stuff below the above quotation and your other
post), and will immediately delete both without reading 'em.  Have a
great weekend.
