How are you going to react to your name being used to promote this software, Georg? Does his recent questionable outbursts on the GPL and "freeloaders" worry you at all?
Anyway, where's RMS's credit? ;-)

I don't know whether I should really react to having him thank me for talking to him about these issues.
Do you think I should react?

Yes, they do worry me.
But sometimes you get a distorted vision on a situation because people get at each others throats and start behaving in an unappropriate way. I find it very hard to assign blame in such situations and prefer to work on a solution instead.
Richard Morrell asked me and others at the FSF to help him resolve the situation. We will tell him what we believe needs to be done. If he doesn't do this we will certainly communicate that fact, if he does, the situation should get resolved within the next weeks.
