Topic: "Where is the source code of GNU/linux Montavista" ?

Dear GPL-VIOLATIONS.ORG & CC:


With the herewith, i inform you that i was interested to download
GNU/linux Montavista for my D-Link G624T from
http://source.montavista.com but it is not possible

I hope that Montavista is joking

MontaVista has a history of being a major contributor to the Linux
kernel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel and the open source
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source community.

You are barking up the wrong tree (again). You need to go to D-Link for
the sources of this device.

Some background information: the product that this product was built on
is a Linux distribution that MontaVista had available for download in
2005 or so. Many ODMs took it and built products with it and distributed
them GPL incompliant. Because the MontaVista name was all over the code
many people started to complain about it to MontaVista, even though
MontaVista was compliant, causing them a lot of headache: they got
accused of something they did not do.

Also, MontaVista was sold to Cavium quite some years ago. Parts of
MontaVista were sold earlier this year to Mentor Graphics and MontaVista
does not really exist anymore.

Feel free to donate for the 30 seconds required to find it. And for the
record, Montavista contributed a great deal to the OSS community.
