Your Red Herring defenses are getting old David.
You never presented this is a discovery of some questionable licenses in the source tree. I assert that the licensing change has, from the start, been an action initiated by you due to your being pissed off that your lack of leadership and communication skills have lead others to conclude that the XFree86 project is unlikely to continue being relevant in the future. In other words, you kicked everyone out of your sandbox and now you are crying because they have created their own sandbox to play in and they are having a lot more fun than your bitter self. Your response to this was to try to force these others to call their sandbox "The Sandbox Project, based in part off of work from the XFree86 Project". On the other hand, you seem to be pushing harder to get XFree86 approved as a trademark; your intentions here can only be assumed to be dubious given your past behavior.
The truth is David, I don't care about XFree86 nor about the license
change. I care more about the fact that your behavior over the past two years indicates to me that you are likely to be depressed and in need of professional help. It is sad that you cannot ask for help in order to benefit yourself and a project that you have dedicated a lot of time to.
