Hi Andre,
This sort of situation is best handled with a level head. You must separate
the GPL violation from anything else they do to annoy you.
Get a copy of their CD and document that accurate source of GPL-derived
code is not available, on a file-by-file basis, showing evidence that
the code was modified and that the modifications are not available in
source form. Make it available to others so that they can confirm your
findings. Then, and only then, can can this be pursued with ABIT and
anyone else who distributes the CD.
I don't care much about anything they happen to say about Red Hat. I doubt
Red Hat cares much either. Likewise for what they write about Linux. All I'd
like to hear is how compiled code doesn't match available source.
You might find that emotionally difficult, but I can assure you that it is
the only way to be effective in enforcing GPL violations.
Thanks
Bruce
