  • I agree that all that can be done is sue them and lets the courts decide what the meaning of the GPL contract is.

    I’m surprised at the link you gave since it is written by someone who agrees with my take, not yours and RedHat’s. And you stated clearly that RedHat absolutely is not violating the GPL, when that is actually just your opinion. The real tldr quote of that article is:

    Debates continue, even today, in copyleft expert circles, whether this model itself violates GPL. There is, however, no doubt that this provision is not in the spirit of the GPL agreements.

    Time for a GPL version 4: no extraneous agreements that nullify GPL terms.

    My apologies if I seem too hostile.
