Hi Max, thank you very much for all your hard work on MPD over the many, many years (and the same goes for everyone else involved). I also really appreciate your insistence on GPL compliance. The GPL explicitly states "[...] by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License [...] and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it". What Mr. Wright doesn't seem to understand, is that he already violated any third party agreements. The only question is, whether a judge forces him to give you the sources or if he does it on his own. This verdict against Skype Technologies might be of interest (German): http://www.ifross.org/artikel/urteil-gegen-skype-rechtskraeftig another good source is http://gpl-violations.org/faq/violation-faq/
Maybe he also confuses the license with the GPLv3, which gives a grace period of 60 days upon notice (although an explicit termination of the license by the copyright holders is obviously valid as well). No matter, how thing will develop further, I just wanted to say thank you and you are really amazing. Kind regards, Moritz _______________________________________________ mpd-devel mailing list mpd-devel@musicpd.org http://mailman.blarg.de/listinfo/mpd-devel
