[0]mollyhackit writes “Hackaday reports that the GPL vs Skype case is
[1]going back to court today. This as an appeal to the court’s decision
[2]Slashdot reported last July. The original case was brought against
Skype for the Linux based SMC Skype WiFi phone. The court upheld the
[3]GPLv2 and decided that Skype had not gone far enough in meeting
section 3 which details how to provide the original source. This time
around Skype is apparently trying to argue that the GPL violates
anti-trust regulations.”
