Law&courts...
Justice Mellor said that CSW is NOT the author of the Bitcoin White Paper.
AFAIK, there was no evidence presented to court either way. No alternate author, & no proof of the negative that CSW did not write the paper.
What was Justice Mellor's pre-ruling based on?

To state that CSW is NOT the author needs evidence to that point. CSW failed to prove that he is the one & COPA failed to prove that he isn't.
It's unproven... either way.
So why did Justice Mellor lean over his skis to say CSW isn't? Luckily we will read the full judgement.
...
hahaha... you overestimate the time I spend on the SN soap opera. Anyway, the judgement will be interesting.
...
1. I don't know my way around the code I wrote in 2008. Heck, I don't know my way around the code I wrote last week...
2. I used to ask a similar q in interviews. It's unsurprising that he fluffed it, I never heard anyone get it right.
3. yeah, seems clear to have ended in OO.
...
for what I know, JVP (Joseph Van Perling) has gone private, doesn't want to be involved with any of this any more.
...
lol... as someone who just wrote a paper in Latex, and then had that converted in to Word, and ... the point isn't on point.
Are we saying that there is no Latex plugin in OO? There is no way to convert between the formats? Only one person worked it?
...
Complicated question.
Craig is as Craig is. He's on the autistic spectrum. He doesn't do normal societal issues like others. But he knows a lot of stuff, often O(2) than his twitter detractors. Summed, he's a nightmare wrapped in a dilemma cuddled in a paradox.
...
The deal with Calvin looked ok to me, altho I'm not privy to it.
But can Calvin actually run a business based on such inputs, with 2 egos in play? Time has shown, no. So there is a missing element.
Introducing a 3rd new character as CEO turned nChain into a three body problem.

Predictably, it wasn't predictable, it blew.
nChain needs new face, remake, strategy, everything.
But back to your question - I saw no new evidence that said CSW was/n't in Satoshi team. I saw lots of evidence that Craig shouldn't be put on the witness stand, but that's passé.
...
COPA was a hard thing. This was (a) the trial that Craig wanted, (b) the trial he stood most to gain & muck things up, and (c) still not quite clear on the whole "I know the law" theory versus court realities.
And here we are...
...
Agreed, he had time & money, except for the unfortunate event of the switch from one law firm to another.
That said, I'd not put Craig on the stand. his lawyers have less <cof> choice, bc it's his case. Life's a bitch...

Let's be clear here: CSW found a nexus from crypto to IPv6 that I haven't seen anyone else understanding, intimating, thinking.
I have no idea whether he added support in Bitcoin, but I also know having added it in my own code that such a thing is not a hard test, it's soft.
...
Craig and some folks in IEEE had a deal to promote IPv6 in conferences, around about 2012. It worked for a while, then stopped. Not an important story.
