Hi Frank:
I agree with you that we should not judge until all the facts are in, including
any response the programmers may make.  But I disagree with you that to publish
or make public such things is not right.

Clones are a scourge on our hobby.  No one should make baseless allegations and
it does not appear that Paul has.  He has presented strong evidence and his
findings are available for anyone to confirm independently.  I imagine this
required no small investment of his own time.

The problem of clones will always exist but work like Paul has done will help
keep it in check.
