I know Cobalt didn't use to release the Apache RPM as their version was compiled against the RSA BSAFE libraries, which Cobalt was not allowed to redistribute. I'm not sure if that's still the case or not. For what it's worth, a contact of mine still at Sun has been asking why the FTP server isn't being kept 'up to date' with PKG releases. No answers yet. I think that there's just nobody left who 'owns' the process, and getting someone else to do it isn't as simple now as it was in the 'Cobalt Networks' days. But I agree that I think it is a GPL violation, especially for the kernel. - -- Bruce Timberlake http://www.brtnet.org/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+JLBHvLA2hUZ9kgwRAhu1AJ9Gkgwrn02Q5jDPhg2K6UoGzpyMewCfd/Bg Rv+D1VgxLiGFGoglf68S8JE= =1Whq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
