Hello all,

And here we have it from the horse's mouth: http://forums.pcquest.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4523

The editor of PCQ has responded that they have _not_ violated the GNU GPL as they have modified only anaconda and the init scripts of FC4. _I'm stumped_ :O How in the world have they "remastered" an entire distro without modifying anything other than anaconda and the init scripts? They claim to have distributed the sources of anaconda along with PCQLinux 2006. I believe them.

If thats the case then I am shocked as to how can someone:

1. FUBAR hardware detection
2. Introduce a whole lotta bugs
3. Break packages

Can someone from the Fedora team validate PCQ's claims?
