I once approved Fabien's decision not to give fruit's code anymore (this was
shortly after the Toga affair).
I was not even consulted when Fabien and Joachim decided to go commercial.
I did not think it was to be muc successful but I wished them all success.
They asked me for the books and I gave them for free immediately.
I never thought of asking anything monetary for this.

So you completely miss the point.
