I'm not defending him.... I simply understand you do not get the basic clue.... so I can better close this discussion....

As i said, the link posted has, to my knowledge, no legal meaning. If you have any evidence I'm wrong there feel free show me. I'd gladly accept that.

EIDIT: and btw, do you really think, after reading the full License, anyone may have not understood what the author wants and what not?
I think is very clear.

Someone is stealing other peoples property and "selling" it as his own, and you're defending him, how is that not pathetic?

And BTW: code posted publicy without a License attached is NOT! free. Anything without License has to be considered proprietary and may not be used without explicit acknowkledgment of the copyright holder(s).
There have been quite some statements about thats in terms of e.g. LICENSE-Less code on github.

same shit as everytime, let's go and find some cheap excuse to accept the a cheap copy anyways.
Let's put it totally different:

The License of the Plugin is not GPL compatible and therefore the code may not be used in any way with GPLed code.

The Open Source Definition behind the link, has to my knowledge, NO Legal meaning at all. It's no more than an idealistic definition of a general term done by some "random" people.

Why is it so hard for you to accept obvious wishes of others?
Shall we go and copy all your code now and remove all copyrights? What would you say about that?

Stop being pathetic PLEASE.

by removing the copyright and replacing it with his own the author already clearly stated what he gives about licenses or copyright.
