Abusing the community? The 'evidence' on that site was provided by Jamie and is also available on his site. How is Jamie abusing the community? He doesn't think he is in breach of the EULA and is sticking up for himself.
Jamie wrote:They say that I have been in correspondence with Microsoft about these issues for many months. What they don't take into account is that in over a year of correspondence - Microsoft consistently refused to tell me which license I was allegedly in violation of.
For example on Feb 26, 2007 Jason Weber said:
Jamie, for the reasons we discussed at great length, we believe your
various extensions to the Visual Studio Express products necessarily
violated the relevant license terms. We don't think it's productive to
rehash those discussions.We may have discussed this at great length, but I was never told what that the "relevant license terms" actually were! I only re-enabled Express support when Microsoft yet again failed to tell me where I was in violation. A straight answer with something I could tell my users would have resolved this.
