BEWARE !
The following is an assumption, not a known fact. And I am not a
lawyer, so your mileage may vary.
When you look into the source code of WinCE then you might at some time
experience the virus-like aspects of "shared source". Whenever you do
something in the same realm, it might be the case that someone is
trying to sue you because of "theft of industry secrets" or something
like this.
Such a situation could arise when Microsoft makes less and less revenue
and tries to use lawsuits instead of innovation to gain (or not loose)
market share. For them fighting even a bogus lawsuit is cheap, they pay
it from penny cash. But for a private person, trying to enhance Linux
for fun?
