Except that's not what happened. MS didn't "get caught" for a GPL violation Just as a record in the Memory Hole, a paste from a separate thread, now buried: -8<--------------------- MJF: Hemminger is claiming Microsoft put the LIC code under the GPL because it was in violation of the GPL. Is this true? Did you have to suggest to (Microsoft Platform Strategy Chief Sam) Ramji & Co. that they were in violation in order to get them to agree to release the code under GPLv2? GKH: I didn’t have to “suggest” anything, I only had to merely point out the obviousness of the situation :) MJF: If this isn’t accurate, could you let me know how to interpret (Hemminger’s) comments on his blog. GKH: No, that sounds accurate. [...] Ramji didn’t come right out and deny the GPL violations claim, but I guess that’s as much as we’re going to get. http://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=3433 ------------------------ |
