I doubt it. If it's still being distributed, I don't think you'd have any case at all. I think it would be far more reasonable to argue that you only need to provide the code to the public while it's being distributed. It's not clear whether "when distributed" means "at the time that they are being distributed" or "if they have ever been distributed". -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED]
