| "These boxes run on Linux," Chopra explained. "It goes through the same

RIAA to help enforcing the GPL
,----[ Quote ]
| Free/Iliad is a French Internet provider with a whooping €1B in revenues. Its
| founder Xavier Niel boasts being a very profitable business with all
| salaries representing only a few percents of Free’s revenues: a performance
| that might be better explained by the amount of open source leveraged by
| their massive infrastructure.
|
| [...]
|
| What's of particular interest here is the way Mr. Niel [Free's founder]
| argues the GPL is irrelevant to this case. His claims is [sic] roughly this:
| my 3,000,000 GPLoaded-home routers are part of my network therefore the GPL
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| doesn't apply since I don't distribute any software outside of my network.

Announcing Jupiter Base
,----[ Quote ]
| Today I am really excited to announce one of the most important aspect of
| Jupiter, Jupiter Base. What is Jupiter Base? It’s the mainline distribution
| of Linux that we will sync against to use as a platform that we will build
| the Jupiter Desktop from. In a very real sense, it’s our launch platform for
| the Jupiter Project.

| et me be very clear. Jupiter is NOT just another Ubuntu. We are simply
| leveraging the great work, the large application vendor support for the
| Ubuntu system, and a familiar solid base system for the end user. Jupiter is
| going to be its own system with many of our own enhancements built in, it
| will be a clear trend setter and standout from the rest. Working with the
| Ubuntu project we will share bug fixes and improvements made to all aspects
| of the Desktop.
