the Program or work based on the Program, and must offer an
equivalent opportunity for all users interacting with your Program
through a computer network to request immediate transmission by HTTP
of the complete source code of your modified version or other
derivative work.
Incidentally, this is pretty badly drafted, IMO. For example:
- The requirement to not remove certain particular code is probably
non-free;
- The general requirement to make code available for download could be
asserted without the "don't remove code X" clause;
- Specifying HTTP is not future-proof, and may not be appropriate for
some programs or environments;
- What happens if the program interacts with other programs over a
network? How do you define "interacting with a user"?
