I'm out of this thread. I hope the others do same?

Are you trying to start a fight? Seriously, what do you intend with
something like that which serves nothing but to inflame a situation with no
real justification behind it.
Poaching has been a long used term by recruiters and employers. We do not
need our boards trolled by people who only intend to take people away from
contributing and take them to their own projects.
You, yourself, have such a project. You, yourself, makes money off of
promoting yourself as is evident in the website you promote with each email
and the material you try to sell.
That is a major Conflict of Interest and I hope people realize just how
bad that is.

just like any other, who supply effort rather than money. Donors of effort
certainly are not resources belonging to financial donors, and it is
certainly not theft when a volunteer chooses to spend effort on one project
rather than another.
But that's not even the most amazing thing. That would be that you're
seriously criticizing that I used the email address from the domain where I
have my personal blog, just because somewhere on there is a link to a
different project than this one. What does one have to do to avoid your
ridiculous accusations of promotion -- use an anonymous remailer?

It is not about license. It is about volunteers. If you poach from
Wikiversity, you should be banned. It is that simple. Our donors spend
money on resources like this list. You are stealing our donors resources.
That is theft.
