No wonder they refunded! http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment17http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment17Sun, 15 Feb 2009 19:13:00 GMTI have ZERO idea why they wouldn't go through all that and then just do what they should have in the first place. I have never seen a company go as far as to trash a customer on their website. I think Paul Alexander was the bully type in school and he's upset he lost. http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment16http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment16Tue, 10 Feb 2009 17:17:33 GMTOut of all possible outcomes it is very ironic for them to not only lose business, lose face due to poor customer service (most likely costing further business) they now have a new FOSS (or atleast OSS depending on license with it) to compete against. http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment15http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment15Mon, 09 Feb 2009 14:35:45 GMTBravo, finally we all received a patched thanks to Paul Alexander. http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment14http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment14Sat, 07 Feb 2009 02:49:48 GMTPaul Alexander you did the right thing. http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment13http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment13Sat, 07 Feb 2009 00:23:20 GMT[rhino-tools.svn.sourceforge.net/.../rhino-licen...](https://rhino-tools.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rhino-tools/trunk/rhino-licensing)http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment12http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment12Fri, 06 Feb 2009 20:56:26 GMT@Ayedne Rhino Licensing - is that available anywhere? :-) http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment11http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment11Fri, 06 Feb 2009 19:49:04 GMTdd, Rhino Licensing http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment10http://ayende.com/3855/closing-the-xheo-saga#comment10Fri, 06 Feb 2009 19:45:37 GMTSo, not only did they not get to keep the revenue, but they may get a new competitor out of the deal?
