You are such an IDIOT!

If i wanted to see my copyright in the file i could add it to each file i 
touch, like you do.

I was just saying that it was bad to base a new file on a old one, copying 
blocks of the old one into the new one (or rewriting them - at the end one 
sees its the same code with different syntax), then remove the original 
authors copyright (dwelch), add his own name, svn delete the old file and add 
the new file instead of moving and keeping all copytrights in the 
file/history.

You said you didnt know who wrote the FPU code (after i said that i have 
written it and noone can see that because of the deleted history), but you 
would have had to assume that it was written by dwelch if thats the only name 
in the file (and add his name to the new file) or simply keep the history of 
the file so everyone can see which part was written by whom.
So the file said it was written by dwelch, while the history showed that it 
was written by me (i didnt want to add my copyright into the file, knowing 
that people can see from the history that i have written it was enough 
satisfaction) - and now the history is gone and the file leaves the 
impression that everything was written 100% by you.

IMO we should try to take care of others copyright (even if you dont like 
them)

I never asked you to add my copyright back to the file, and you would also 
have to add david welch again (and all the others from the old history which 
worked on the file), no only me!
