Hi Andre, On Mon, Feb 14, 2011 at 10:19:29AM +0100, André wrote: *hrm* I happen to have started both OsmocomBB and gpl-violations.org ;) But please, before running around and pointing fingers at companies: Do you have any evidence that Mediatek is in breach of the GPL? I don't think so. MTK is not selling any phones. They are merely selling the chipset to phone manufacturers. If MTK has gone for '3a)' of GPLv2, then they have provided the complete corresponding source code to the phone manufacturers. _if_ that is the case, they have no obligation to provide any source code to any 3rd party. If you buy a MTK chipsets + Linux kernel based phone, it is the phone manufacturer / importer / distributor who needs to ensure GPL compliance of the full device/product. Please keep further discussion on MTKs GPL compliance off this list. This is a technical list on OsmocomBB development. If you actually found some GPL violation in a product and have evidence, please report it to license-violation(a)gpl-violations.org Regards, Harald -- - Harald Welte <laforge(a)gnumonks.org> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."
