Howdy all, Tonight I shared the news that ThinkPenguin have put together <URL:https://www.thinkpenguin.com/gnu-linux/free-software-wireless-n-broadband-router-gnu-linux-tpe-nwifirouter2> a wireless router with all free software (the operating system is LibreCMC <URL:http://librecmc.org/>). I also referred to the news that ThinkPenguin's work has earned them a chapter in the GPL Tutorial and Guide at copyleft.org: Too often, case studies examine failure and mistakes. Indeed, most of the chapters that follow herein will consider the myriad difficulties discovered in community-oriented GPL enforcement for the last two decades. However, to begin, this is a case study in how copyleft compliance can indeed be done correctly. This example is, in fact, more than ten years in the making. Since almost the inception of for-profit corporate adoption of Free Software, companies have requested a clear example of a model citizen to emulate. Sadly, while community-oriented enforcers have vetted uncounted thousands of “Complete, Corresponding Source” (CCS) candidates from hundreds of companies, this particular CCS release described herein is the first ever declared a “pristine example”. <URL:https://copyleft.org/guide/comprehensive-gpl-guidech22.html> This is a good example to trumpet for increasing software freedom in a field (currently-available consumer electronics) where such examples are few and far between. -- \ “Skepticism is the highest duty and blind faith the one | `\ unpardonable sin.” —Thomas Henry Huxley, _Essays on | _o__) Controversial Questions_, 1889 | Ben Finney
