Moint (an open source utility for monitoring running processes) issued
a DMCA to GitHub against a competing package, Inspeqtor, written in Go
because they use "the same configuration language that is used in
Monit".
Moint says that Inspeqtor implementation in Go is far from a
"clean-room" and is asking that Mike Perham (the author of Inspeqtor)
"adhere to the GNU Affero General Public License which Monit is
licensed under".
