Milan,

Is it possible to ask him his thoughts on it? That way, he could realize
that the full implimentation of his driver is sufficiently important to the
community and: [a] give you his permission to distribute; [b] let us pay for
licences once more; or [c] do a once-for-all hack of his own and release a
new version that requires neither registration nor hack by us.

Just a thought.

Shalom.
Christian
