As for the "Oct" date on Olaf's contract... Isn't it obvious that "discussions" are made before contracts are signed. |
But that would mean discussion were had (and a contract drafted) for getting sources from Olaf *before* the OS4 contract was signed. Which makes saying "but oh, we expected to get these from AI" in 2007 somewhat disingenuous.

If you sign a document which says that "On this n-th day of month X, we do ABC", and it isn't the n-th day of month X, you need to either make that damn clear somewhere (like scribbling a different date over it, as seen in the OS4 contract), *or* accept that for all intents and purposes, the n-th day of month X was when you signed it.
