One of the issues not touched upon in this article is that neither BBC provides the sources from which their BBC is built.
This is partially because both were originally built from a combination of sources and already built binaries.
It does remain, however, that both BBCs are probably in violation of the GPL.
The good folks on the LNX-BBC project are well aware of this deficiency and are diligently working to resolve it and to provide complete sources for their BBC.
LinuxCare, on the other hand, seems blithely unaware of and/or unrepentant about their GPL obligations.
