Your interpretation of the court decision is quite awkward. We must adhere to the GPLv3 license instead of LGPL. Not a word about NPL or forcing us to use your logo. SmartStore.NET 2.1 will have GPLv3 in conclusion.

Of course we will. Now it's our turn! A higher court will deal with the issue now.

No, absolutely not! We yearn for a final word. But the only decision(s) we could accept are: "put the damn logo into the footer", OR, "do whatever you want".

There won't be a "friendly" deal as long as I work here. You and your pals played too rude and unfair during the trial, without waiting for a court result. You cannot have both!

UPDATE: And here we go. The court announced its decision today. We won! Right, it's over! Flawless Victory! Instead of just returning "powered by nopcommerce”, SmartStore AG is not allowed to distribute SmartStore anymore.

Of course, SmartStore can go to the next court instance. Let's see whether they will do it.
Of course we will. Now it's our turn! A higher court will deal with the issue now.

But they should not do it if they want to get a chance for some deal with us.

I understand that this court decision can completely kill this company.

We do not want it. We also do not want to harm existing users of SmartStore.
You're a very kind person ;-)

nopCommerce and SmartStore could collaborate. Let's wait and see whether SmartStore wants it.
Like I said... NO!
