it wasn't me who stated that, so don't ask me. :-)

I stated with my previous mail that I do *not* think you are forced. 
What I wanted to say is that statements like these *might* lead to 
assumptions, and that's (IMHO) the reason why people make statements you 
could be influenced.

Ah, okay - so the software grant exists independent from the incubation 
result?

No, that wasn't my intention - sorry if it looked like that. I just 
wanted to make help understand why people state things they do.

Again, I do *not* believe you are influenced. Never did so.
