Google is Violating LGPL Source Code

[Hardy, Allan]

>> Mr Hardy believes what we do for the binaries is not good enough.

I wish I had read this before last post.  
Mr Hardy has no problem now, what you are doing is good enough and legal
and complaint - given the facts

Mr Hardy does wish you would update the License file/Documentation to
accurately reflect the packing


If however you do include the LGPL binaries in the distro, I do not
think what your doing via SVN repository for source would be compliant,
see my last note. And as a re-distributor I would ask you to do it
differently, to make my life easier I guess.

But I've no wish to continue this into hypotheticals under a post with
such an inflammatory heading and un friendly manner.

We absolutely provide source to every single piece of GWT, in the
source repo at code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit.
Mr Hardy believes what we do for the binaries is not good enough.
