Isn't Apache licensed under the GPL? -- Not by a long shot.
And isn't there a "viral" clause in the GPL stating that any modifications made to GPL software must also be released under the GPL? -- Not by a long shot.
So - does this mean that Google were in violation of the licence by not releasing the source code to the modification? - Not by a long shot.
what other GPL software they've made changes to and aren't releasing the source in violation of the licence. - Not by a long shot.
Has the GPL actually been tested in court yet? - Several times over.
I wonder if the FSF has the cash and stones to tackle a company as big as Google on this issue -- Does it need to? I mean, according to someone who actually knows at least a tiny tiny tiny bit about this subject?
This is the most entertaining post I've read in weeks. Incredibly misinformed person using charmingly assertive and confident tone, almost fooling the unalert. You must be an Oracle salesperson.
