It's okay. part of the reason I'm sensitive to it is that it's a
commonly held belief that OpenLayers is violationg ToS in order to
achieve what it does, so I have to work hard to convince people that's
not the case. your email wasn't particularly strong on this point, but
things can -- and have been, many times -- quoted out of context to
prove some assertion in this regard.

I'm glad I could clear it up; sorry if my attidue was a bit harsh.
