Summary: The CEO of Sirius ‘Open Source’ LTD has decided to send a humiliating (to himself) letter with mistakes in it; he did so only about three days later, perhaps after seeking legal advice and finding himself unable to afford the audit/checking of two separate letters (hence he sent two almost identical letters that aren't applicable to the recipients -- yet another case of profound Sirius incompetence)
