Also, the task seems to run out of memory pretty often.. tweaking Ant's VM args should probably fix it but I haven't tried yet.

Make sure to use gzipoutput=”true” and effort=”9″ to get the maximum effect. Also, the task seems to run out of memory pretty often.. tweaking Ant’s VM args should probably fix it but I haven’t tried yet.

I will be waiting. Hopefully, all is well that ends well. Note that at that stage I received an email with a source code ETA of October 24th 2007 or earlier.

Same as here sounds like. This in turn triggered a lawsuit: http://www.softwarefreedom.org/news/2007/sep/20/busybox/ Someone pointed me to the recent case about BusyBox:

I have definitely no taste for a lawsuit, but asking their help could always be an option. http://www.softwarefreedom.org Actually someone also pointed me to the Software Freedom Law Center, in case the matter cannot be resolved peacefully.

If not they'd have sent a 'we won't do it' kind of reply. The question of how long it may take them to send you the code is a good one though... in germany, you can ask for things a lot of times... as long as you don't give a due date, you'll have a hard time to enforce anything. Given the story here, i'd send them a Letter (snail mail, with confirmation of reciept) asking for the code within 2 weeks.

That sounds like a certain "rad" company I know of. I wondered if that would happen. I can't say I'm surprised. Wow. That sounds like a certain “rad” company I know of.
