In case GPL is really violated in MOSIX, then it's indeed very
pathetic. Too many people naturally assume that the only reason so
much effort was put into GNU code is in order to allow them to take
advantage of the GNU code base to create their own proprietary code.
This is *exactly* what RMS is warning people about. Now call him
paranoid...
Hopefully, the problem will be solved peacefully. If not... While I
don't think I'd support Alan's suggestion, don't forget, that GPL is a
legal document and if violated, it may be forced legally.
