There is only one version of the OSP

user:Kilz has added info suggesting the OSP has multiple version like the comments of the expert were on a different text but in fact the OSP has not changed ever. This suggestion should therefore be removed. The OSP is the same patent license now as it was in 2006 and the article should not suggest otherwise. hAl (talk) 18:11, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, I have not suggested that there are different versions of the OSP. What I did was use past versions of the OSP to date the statement of Mark Webbink since it was on the first osp page at Microsoft. I also believe that exact dates for the quotes and SFLC comment should be in place. It is important, referenced information. I require precise attribution. I also direct you to the Wikipedia:Consensus page. This is not a vote. Kilz (talk) 13:40, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have reviewed these edits and I have to side with hAl's assessment. There is only one version of the OSP and Kilz's edits give, at least to me, the impression that there are more than one. I think the article is better without the web.archive.org reference. Also, disagreements over content is *not* vandalism. Wrs1864 (talk) 17:35, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Amazing that you came here, right to this page and found this discussion. I have placed a different reference. Removing referenced information is vandalism, and against Wikipedia:Consensus, its not a vote. Kilz (talk) 18:24, 27 March 2008 (UTC)"[reply]
Consensus does not mean we do it only the Kilz way. It certainly is not a vote but actually noone is really agreeing with your edits (unless you count the times that you yourself is doing the agreeing ). And your aggresive behaviour towards a new editor in this article just because they do not take your side is a disgrace. hAl (talk) 22:11, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
