Yeah, it would.  So take it.

One-off - you and Jay have a marvellous opportunity to demonstrate 
whether you're honest or a pair of lying, thieving, devious cheats.

Dead straightforward:

a) Name your public source for all of the SIE implementation in 
Hercules.  Is this so hard - it's supposed to be such a model of 
openness, after all?  Or does "open source" only refer to the code 
and not where you got it from?

b) Name just _ONE_ legal commercial licensee of a current IBM 
operating system under Hercules.  Or - failing that - get just _ONE_ 
IBMer to contact me via Analyst Relations (Tiiu Mayer for preference -
 she has a phenomenal reputation in the industry, but Bill Reed, 
Ludovic Leforestier, or even Dan Colby himself).

One of the classic responses is: "IBM have never complained".

No.  They don't - until after the handcuffs are on.  Stupidity 
sometimes knows no boundaries.
