Is Sveasoft Violating the GPL? 738
Ron Harwood writes "First, Linksys was violating the GPL by not releasing their source for their Linux implementation on the WRT54G wireless router and WAP54G access point. When this was rectified, third party firmware started showing up. Well, now it looks like Sveasoft (one of the third party developers) has decided to restrict access to their modified source code to subscribers - that also will need to pay $49 for a CD rather than being able to download it." The thread summary at DSLReports only makes it clear that this is all very complicated.

Seriously, this guy has got issues. He bans people on his boards, he keeps changing the rules on what he wants, he IS violating the GPL and he just seems to be an all-around greedy dick. I was just ready to give him the $20 because I got some cash and Satori 4.0 works pretty well for me but fuck that.
To quote from his Linux Journal article - "...thanks to the power of Linux and open-source development" - No James - thank you for being a freak! Seriously, the guy is cock and I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire at this point... I'm posting AC because I'm afraid this guy will come burn my house down...

In your face, um,... enigmatic forces who've been keeping me down.
Now as long as they don't hack any new functionality in, I'll be sittin' pretty.
