Which is exactly what would happen if the Diku team took the case to court.

Yet, to quote the article, "There is no reason to believe that this would not be a copyright infringement".

No, it's not - did you even read what I posted? "There is no reason to believe that this would not be a copyright infringement, particularly if the reimplementer had access to the source code of the original program, even if none of the original source code remains"

> I have discussed the DIKU license with a lawyer.

You claim many things. You claim to have no interest in Diku or Medievia. Yet you also claim to have hired a lawyer for legal advice on both. And the advice you claim to have received is directly opposed to the wording of the law. It seems pretty obvious that you're lying, I just can't work out why. Is it to try and look clever? Or perhaps you have some related interest in the licence of the LP driver you're using?
