Was it stolen via the GPL?

When someone steals your work — no matter how they do it — it sucks.

I have no doubt that there are people who make mistakes with the GPL
(the Atheros Driver appears to be one of those cases).

I don't think, though, that the GPL is designed to be theft-by-license.

Mark.
