Very true, but i guess FSF is probably(correct me if i'm wrong) the only organisation which keeps a track of GPL violations and does something about it.
No, Harald Welte and http://gpl-violations.org/ also keeps track of gplviolations
thanks for the info :-)
Only if one has chosen one of
the FSF licenses and are violating it or violating GPL in general then
FSF
can take action against the entity concerned.
Not correct. FSF can act only agaist violations of the softwares which
it owns full copyright (that's why most of the official GNU software projects mandates copyright assignment to FSF - only then FSF can enforce GPL compliance).
Hmm... that's true however the FSF will and does ``offer assistance to any other copyright holder who wishes to do the same."
