Well that kinda takes the buzz off. Give them an A for effort though, this will presumably get them a lot of schematics that they then have rights to exploit. I'm thinking the 'Encyclopedia of modern circuits' series which was a collection of small one-off circuits that has done well for Rudolf Graf (caveat the occasional lawsuit).
It was also pretty slow on Firefox on Linux but it may be faster in a different configuration.
