Well, i simply don't think he is going to do the GPL releases with our patches 
in and the commercial releases without our patches. It is simply 
unmantainable.

Well, my code is mine, i am not going to let him relicense my code to sell it. 
If he wants to do that, i'll sell him my agreement if he wants. I'm not going 
to let him do business at the cost of the sleep time i loose working on 
poppler.

Of course, he is free to try to write the same patches we do, but not having a 
look at our code is better for him to be sure he does not copy some code by 
mistake.

P.S: The ONLY reason i could think of giving Derek the right to relicense my 
code for free would be if he joined poppler, that is, developed xpdf inside 
poppler, but that's not going to happen, unfortunately.
