Hi,
Just to re-iterate what we are talking about:

The question is not about FUD, but is a simple legal one:
If the google distribution is not compliant, then everybody else
who redistribute that google distribution is also not compliant,
and therefore liable.
As Allan Hardy seems to run a business around open source (if I
read the thread correctly), it is very damaging (reputation wise
at least) if somebody claims he is not being compliant (when
(re)distributing the google distribution).
So yes, the question is a very valid one.
I assume the spirit is already there. (And if not, frequent
reminders will popup :-) ).
