Hi In the issue 07/2005 of the Linux Magazin (German issue) there is a story about Harald Welte who developed some stuff of the netfilter (netfilter.org). He sued a lot of companies which violates the GPL when they put the netfilter in their router. He started gpl-violations.org ; maybe there are some hints.
