We must be somehow miscommunicating.
I was just saying that that any line of reasoning that leads to the
conclusion that OSI cheerleads for the GPL is plainly, egregiously wrong,
as even a perfunctory examination of its activities and public presence
will confirm. One is tempted to conclude that a person making that
argument -- unless you know him to be above that, as we do with you --
is posting flamebait.

Since you ask, no. There were unstated questionable assumptions big
enough to hurl a book on dual-licensing through. But that was not
really my point.
