Apparently, Verizon wasn't distributing?

Parent article: BusyBox Developers Agree To End GPL Lawsuit Against Verizon

At the time the suit was announced, there was a lot of discussion (here and in Groklaw) about
whether Verizon actually was subject to GPL terms or not - whether they were distributing the
software, or simply selling/renting boxes that contained software that Actiontec was the
distributor for.

The text of the announcement seems to imply, by omission, that it was not - no mention was
made of Verizon having agreed to do anything differently.

It seems to make clear that the responsibility for the violation was Actiontec's.
