As some on these lists likely already know, Conservancy's GPL Compliance
Project for Linux Developers [0] is aware of this matter and is
considering what actions to take, and how such actions should be ranked
in priority given the queue of the hundreds of known GPL violations on
Linux occurring every day.

We very much appreciate that Eric has brought the matter to our
attention and I'm continuing to correspond with Eric privately in the
hopes that we can resolve the matter.

If anyone wants to join Conservancy's GPL Compliance Project for Linux
Developers, please do contact me!
