That's easy - just because something isn't meant to be enforceable in a court doesn't mean that the parties aren't bound to honour it. They are; it is an agreement made in good faith, and the parties agree to operate in good faith. On 08/05/07, Thomas Roessler <roessler@does-not-exist.org> wrote:

On the one hand, there still isn't a clear indication what the status of the MoU really is -- is it binding, on whom, and so on. That would have been a set of questions that should have been resolved before the MoU was formally signed.
I'm afraid the above isn't a correct statement. The MoU is binding upon those who signed it. It is not binding upon those who have not.
In that case, I'm awaiting your explanation what the word "binding" means when it comes to an agreement that is "not intended as a contract for enforcement".
