Open source in BT
,----[ Quote ]
| Yesterday we had an open source event in BT's auditorium called "Open
| source - open for business". If you'll excuse the rather corporate-sounding
| title, it was actually a really cool day. There were elements of preaching to
| the converted - a large proportion of the audience were already open source
| advocates - but I'm sure those who were new to the subject would've left the
| event inspired by how compelling the argument in favour of open source has
| become.

BT says 'enough' on GPL
,----[ Quote ]
| BT has published much of the relevant code here and clearly believes
| it has done more than enough to comply with the GPL.
|
| But the Free Software Foundation Europe remains unimpressed.
|
| They told us: "Armijn Hemel of gpl-violations.org analysed the
| source code and said that some of the necessary code is missing.
| For example, a top level Makefile and the scripts that would be
| used to properly generate a firmware image have not been included.
| A script or file with the uClibc configuration is also mandatory.
