Dave, Regardless of whether your modified sources are considered simple aggregation (which they cannot), your fundamental gpl-violation is that you did not include a copy of the license per Section 1 of the GPL. Thus your distribution is in violation of the GPL, and your attempt to distribute the files without a copy of the license means that, for you, the license is void and terminates. Anyone else that has redistributed LiS-2.18.0 from your site without including the license, such as Steve, is also in fundamental violation of the GPL and the license to these files was void and terminated. As we follow a dual-licensing model, punitive damages may have resulted from these gpl violations. For more information, see http://www.gpl-violations.org/
