correct me if i am wrong, but that work might not even be GPL licensed
That's my question Karan.....if they use GPL software to build a
redistributable linux, don't they have to share its code...simply
because they made modifications to GPL code and redistributed it?
Isn't that the nature of the GPL licence?
IANAL, but if the code is GPL licensed, then they would need to make the
source available to anyone who also has access to the binaries. This
includes the build scripts, makefiles and toolchain used in the
conversion from source to binary format.
