"<x-tad-bigger> When a company distributes a product that includes GPL-covered software in executable form, the "complete source code" must be available for the GPL-covered software. According to the GPL, "For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable."

Does GPL require that they provide they enhancements
they made, or just the source code of what they
started with? If the latter is the case, I don't see
what the big deal is. It's not like others can't get
their own copy of the source code from SourceForge.
