We doubtlessly are both the type always looking for the last word. I'll make mine brief.
Perspectives differ, particularly with written communications, over what is said -- intonation, emphasis, and various nuances are lost -- and, especially, over what is implied and what may be inferred. I'll leave it at that.
With no reflection on you -- not stated, not implied, and, hopefully, not inferred, I remain adamant in my original belief and opinion that for the Turkish gentleman to blatantly copy Taki's board, while likely not illegal, is certainly most distasteful. Consequently, I would choose not to associate with him or to identify with the board in any way. I felt the same way 3-4 years ago with the Mexican Taki knock-offs being sold by Jose Farca. I will feel the same way with the next copy artist -- must just be the design engineer in me.
