Dell released its Android based tablet, Streak, in January, but just this week Dell finally agreed to adhere to the GPL by releasing the tablet’s source code.
Harald Welte, founder of gpl-violations.org, brow-beat Dell to release the source code.
Welte said, “This is good news!” However, he also said, “it is pretty sad that we’ve had to do go down the gpl-violations.org enforcement route.”
Streak source code is available here.
