I agree, the answer was changed after I accepted it, which was an initial response saying they would respond shortly.

If we have broken any licensing terms, then I would like to have been contacted, and Appcelerator to tell us and exactly what we were doing wrong, so that we can resolve it.

Unfortunately this response doesn't address any of my problems - it's the usual "we care and we are growing" spiel. I empathise to some extent as I know it's hard to build a technical business, but this didn't address the trust issues, and I'm still no clearer about whether Monday morning we're still expected to license from them?

Worst of all for me, I now have a damaged relationship with a not particularly technical client who sadly is likely to associate "open source" with "legal problems".
