hi,
yes, you are right that it is important to enforce the gpl and therefore
that the sourcecode is made available.
BUT:
[ ] you are aware of that the plugin has not been released yet, that the
binaries that actually are out are not a release and _not_ intended for a
productive environment right now?
[ ] you are aware of that x2go drains loads of energy from the two with
promoting the procect etc?
[ ] you are aware of that heinz has stated that he already is facing
dificulties that make a lawyer necessary, time, nervers, money?
[ ] you give credid that this project is happening in spare time, that we
get a great software for free? and there _is_ a life next to a pc. i am
more than grateful that we do get such a great project, that they put this
much effort and energy into x2go. i do want to honor it.
[ ] you know that they are huge supportes of oss, gpl and the like, that
they have released the source code to the released (!) components and i am
100% sure that this will also happen to the new plugin ... once it has
been released?
i am sorry, but even though i believe that you are right to ask for
sourcecode, i firmly do believe that in this case you are going too far,
hitting the very wrong people!
