Parent article: The FSF raises the stakes for Cisco
Could you provide some specifics on HOW being lenient with Cisco about their repeated violations of the GPL has resulted in their linksys group being diligent in ensuring that future products wouldn't violate GPL?
From my rather distant perch, it seems more like Cisco's simply been assuming that their GPL-friendliness (which has, incidently probably resulted in increased sales).. would give them a bye with result to their linksys-group violations.
It's actually two different issues with two different divisions of th company.
If the FSF's lenience has been truly productive, it would be good to know how..
