Well, aside from all the flaming, here are some simple things to consider: 1) What a person writes belongs to the person. You have no right to pass on to anyone else my private mails to you, UNLESS I gave you permission. That's the law, and I think it is very reasonable, although not easy to enforce at a private level. With private e-mail or chatting, I am not giving the receiver permission to publish my writings. but when I post in a forum like this, I am. Big difference. 2) If you want to judge anything, you should hear the case from BOTH sides before you formulate any opinion. If you can't get the other side of the story, then you should dismiss what you have from the one side as "hearsay" and nothing more. After all, the whole thing could be constructed... Since you have nothing in support of either of the above, you have no business to transact here, other than shrugging your shoulders and possibly confront your "source" with the fact of him breaking copyright laws.... That's really all there is to it. If your ethical standards can handle it, that's also all you want to do. if you want to do anything else, then your ethical standards are clearly different from what I can respect, and in such case, you do not need anyone else's opinions to support your action.
