| schestowitz_bed | I remained silent about the whole Focal relicensing troubles for now. There was a lot of drama between the app being GPL, and the fact Cyanogen Inc wanted to use it, which drove some frustration between me, some CM contributors, and CM leaders. As a result, to avoid any problem, Focal has been removed from CyanogenMod. I think you deserve explanations and “behind the scenes†view on how all of this happened, and to know it†| Oct 04 19:10 |
| schestowitz_bed | s not just a last-minute decision or ragequit. | Oct 04 19:10 |
| schestowitz_bed | This is the true, fully-featured story of the “Focal drama”. It's not a rant about how Cyanogen Inc is bad or anything (and it can be a good thing, with a few conditions, see at the end of the post), but just an insight on how this all happened, and how some people were and are feeling. | Oct 04 19:10 |

| schestowitz_bed | "By perusing the paleo-anthropolgy literature one finds that we had ethics before we had sophisticated culture, maybe even before we had complex language. It's built into what we are; a weak, tailless, fangless, clawless mammal that has to cooperate to survive in nature." | Oct 04 20:13 |
