Is That Embedded Software GPL-Compliant?
,----[ Quote ]
| Open source software is everywhere these days.
| In particular, Linux is being used
| increasingly to power embedded systems of all
| kinds. That's good, but it's also a challenge,
| because the free software used in such
| products may not always be compliant with all
| the licences it is released under â notably
| the GNU GPL. For companies that sell such
| embedded systems using open source, it can be
| hard even finding out what exactly is inside,
| let alone whether it is compliant.
