- Mr. Goodman claims his website is a "private organization" and is therefore exempt for releasing source for kernels that are posted on his message board.
- Anyone who signs up can readily download these kernels. The site and its forum serve as a hub for a perpetual beta test where nothing is ever released. This is despite the presence of almost daily kernel binaries and files such as anthrax-aosp-test1-public.zip which contain both a kernel and Busybox, all such files are claimed to be private despite being properly downloaded.
- Mr. Goodman's claims of GPL compliance can be found here. Some have since been removed in an attempt conceal their content:

- Over the course of the months since the highly public debate on the gpl-violations mailing list[1], the site has become "verified only", "invite only", and now "not a public website". I believe this is an attempt to continue systemic violation of the GPLv2.
- In addition to the above, I'd like to submit the following for your consideration of whether a violation or intent to violate has taken place.

- Is Mr. Goodman's GPL posture in line with the language and responsibilities of the GPLv2?
