[Mono-list] Re: On Mono and Patents ... again

[Adrian Dinu]

Obviously, the poster has recognized by the name of the person that he
is Romanian, so probably he doesn't live in the US, so all his whining
about software patents made him look as a "whining idiot" because
software patents are not an issue here (even if Romania is not a part of
the EU yet, hopefully it will be in about a year and 3 months). That's
why he called HIM a "whining idiot".

Geeeeeze
