Linux kernel on HTC Hero Android phone (CDMA/US-Spec)

[Chris McCracken]

So, assuming that HTC intends to completely ignore GPL source requests
(which looks more likely by the day), is there *realistically* anything that
can be done or does the big guy on the block just "get away with" violating
the GPL until a kernel developer takes legal action?  Its too bad we didn't
have a planted reporter at their recent Nexus One press conference where we
could have put their CEO on the spot in front of a big audience.  What does
it take to get their attention and to have them take this seriously? At what
point does one give up and accept that they can just take whatever OSS code
they please, licensing be damned?
