You may not like the shape of the world, but I don't think getting
publicly nasty about it is going to have any positive effect.  It WILL
have a negative effect, as FreeBSD would gather the reputation of very
vindictive; it's even very likely that, somewhere along that road, a
lawsuit over some wording would arise.

You just can't get what you want all the time.
