2007.  Not out of date at all...

See my previous post.  Cisco now have a full time employee dedicated to
FOSS compliance.  You seem to be focussing entirely on one side of that
story.

The FOSS community needs to focus on education, and not finding enemies
under every rock.  I'll be the first to stand up and say I don't like
Cisco products at all from a technical standpoint.  But I will happily
acknowledge their recent efforts to change their free software
compliance efforts for the better.
