Thanks for forwarding Bhaskar's email.........maybe the list manager
will become active again one day?

Anyway........The GPL does have teeth, so much so that in most cases
there hasn't been a NEED to go to court.  When violations have been
pointed out the offenders have generally made changes to come into
compliance.

There is a thread on Slashdot around this issue with (mostly) good info
and links for those interested and concerned:

Cheers,
Tim
