Re: [g-a-devel] Do all references to the same object have the same value?

Will,

Sorry.  As I've told you before, my hands are tied at this point.

I'm new to the open source community so if I'm overstepping the bounds
of etiquette, please let me know.  I've searched the available
documentation as well as I know how to find answers to my questions.
Believe me, I wish I could find the answers there.  If I ask a question
that is answered in some documentation I've missed, please point me at
that documentation.

Is it the desire of open source software developers to only help open
source usages of the software?

Your email begins with "PS", was there more at the beginning?

PS - Are you ready to let the world know what your mystery project is
yet?  A fear I have is that we may all be spending lots of time helping
you develop a proprietary product.  That might be a bummer for us open
source folks.
