Subject: Re: [PATCH] Add CONFIG_VFAT_NO_CREATE_WITH_LONGNAMES option

I am trying to get that to happen, and I do realise that getting a
lawyer to publicly explain the situation would be really
worthwhile. Unfortunately lawyers are (mostly) very shy of making
public statements of this type, because the legal consequences of
making these statements can be non-trivial.

Cheers, Tridge
