If you think you see a violation of the GNU GPL, LGPL, AGPL, or FDL,
the first thing you should do is double-check the facts:

    * Does the distribution contain a copy of the License? _No_
    * Does it clearly state which software is covered by the License? _No_
      Does it say anything misleading, perhaps giving the impression
that something is covered by the License when in fact it is not?
    * Is source code included in the distribution? _No_
    * Is a written offer for source code included with a distribution
of just binaries? _just binaries_
    * Is the available source code complete, or is it designed for
linking in other non-free modules?

If there seems to be a real violation, the next thing you need to do
is record the details carefully:

    * the precise name of the product
    NAStorage series firmware
    http://www.ingrasys.com/downsupport/nas/ds_nas.aspx?itemis=Firmware
    ftp://web:nbupm@download.ingrasys.com/data01/

    * the name of the person or organization distributing it
    Ingrasys Technology Inc.

    * email addresses, postal addresses and phone numbers for how to
contact the distributor(s)
    http://www.ingrasys.com/
    Email for technical support: support at ingrasys.com
    Email for sales & info: sales at Ingrasys.com

    Tel: 886-3-3362688
    Fax: 886-3-3359522

    * the exact name of the package whose license is violated
    Linux Kernel, kernel modules, and others inside the firmware.

    * how the license was violated:
          o Is the copyright notice of the copyright holder included? _No_
          o Is the source code completely missing? _Yes_
          o Does the written offer for source, if given, only give a
website and/or FTP site where to download the source?
          o Is there a copy of the license included in the distribution? _No_
          o Is some of the source available, but not all? If so, what
parts are missing?
