While I am OSS licenses supporter I just wonder how do they apply to China. Onyx does not sell directly in US or Germany. They modify the source code in China and they don have to pay attention to GPL as long as their product distribution is within China. They also distribute to their partners abroad. It is partners who violate law in their respective countries by selling products without fulfilling licensing requirements. They should demand from Onyx to publish the code before attempting to sell anything. Am I wrong here?
