Glass GPL kernel source is out of date #506

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The Glass GPL kernel source available at 
https://code.google.com/p/google-glass-kernel-source/downloads/list and 
https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap/+/glass-omap-xrr02/ is over a year 
out of date.

Please honor the GPL and upload up-to-date source (XE17 as of May 2014).

It looks like the same repository has some other branches in it, which look 
newer. In particular, 
https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap/+/glass-omap-xrv34 might be the 
kernel that's in XE17. But we do need a statement from Google certifying that 
this is, in fact, the kernel that's being used.

On closer inspection - yes, that repository does have the source to the kernel 
version that's in the system images Glass is distributing. However, it has no 
user-space components, and some of the things packed into those system.img 
files Google distributes are in fact GPLed, and Google is not distributing 
their source code at all, at least not in any way associated with Glass.
