Thankyou for your interest in our fine Pony products. We are grateful for your interest and hope your Pony will provide you with many years of service. Unfortunately, for legal reasons we will not be applying your patch. This is on the advice of our lawyers, who pointed out that there are many users of the software who choose DCANTRELL products not only for their fine flavour and beautifully silky mane but also for their stable interface. In addition, there are national security issues to consider. If anyone could easily unpony their code, terrrrrrrrsts and organised crime could get at their source code, which I am sure you agree would lead to the downfall of civilisation.
