I think you folks are assuming that the GPL somehow gives you, the buyer of the router, the right to get source code from somewhere. I don't think it does. All is does is require everybody distributing the router to others to also give recipients the source code, which is not quite the same thing as giving you the right to demand it. So where would you get the source code? From anywhere where it's available. -- Rahul http://rahul.rahul.net/ _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
