  I think we had this discussion before and I ask you
to stop spreading misinformation and fuel the GPL FUD
campaign. 

  I'm the copyright owner of Luxor and, therefore, can
hardly infringe on my own copyright, can't I?

  Anyway, if you want to be taken serious, please back
up your arguments with references to trusted sources. 

 
  Also if you want to lobby for switching Luxor over
to a free-for-all Apache-style license I suggest that
you first build up your credibility by contributing.

  Again, that's not true. As I'm the copyright owner I
can use whatever libraries I want without infringing
my own copyright. I'm hardly going to sue myself.
