Thanks for that insight on a complex subject.

I guess a similar approach to software quality would be, "just don't write bugs."

How is this a "complex subject"? It's really not that hard to ship a leaflet that explains the customer's rights with the product and put a tarball on an ftp server. All I keep hearing is lame excuses.

Have you negotiated with suppliers? Tried to evaluate their complex and hacky toolchains and whether your project should rely on them? It can get nightmarish even without worrying about GPL compliance.
