| SUBJECT | Subject: [hangout] distro investigation for upcoming technight
|
I have been informed of several GPL violations made by a popular
distribution of GNU/Linux and would like to call upon NYLXS to
investigate during an upcoming technight. We would need a spare computer
(something I assume is already in place) and a few interested people.
Please note that I am purposely withholding the name of the distro from
this message because I don't want to sling FUD until these claims are
either proven or dismissed by our investigation.
At this point, I'd just like to know who would be interested in
attending technight on July 3rd to help with this investigation. I
believe technight normally falls on Sundays now but imagine that the
count would be low considering the 4th.
Best,
Adam

line of reasoning, is I want to walk the Court through enough of our
complaint to help the Court understand that IBM clearly did contribute a
lot of the Unix-related information into Linux. We just don't know what
it is."
