Well - I was sorta hoping that if David (or another maintainer) could
show that we acted in good faith, and remedied the infringement
(i.e. removed offending code) in a timely manner, that would be
sufficient. "Minor" would then be something that could be easily
replaced or removed.
It seems you're saying that if I create a patch and e-mail it to the
list (but cleverly avoid mentioning any licensing) and the patch gets
included, I can just wait around and collect?
