First Test Sidestepped

Looks like the first test of the GPL in a court of law has been sidestepped. I’m glad that Monsoon Multimedia has promised to do the right thing. I hope that they follow through with their promise, and publish their code changes.

My only gripe about this whole thing is that it was a solid case in support of the GPL, and setting some precedence in an actual court ruling would have done wonders for the free software movement.

Ah well…. Maybe next time.
