FSF files suit against Cisco

The Free Software Foundation has filed a law suit against Cisco for alleged breaches of copyright in, specifically, many Linksys products ( WRT-series comes to mind as having OSS software ).  Apparently the 2 have been in discussions since 2003 but it appears that Cisco have gone into dormant mode as there are still apparently issues with copyright in their products. One has to wonder why Cisco would tarry as the FSF has been 100% successful in prosecuting OSS software copyright cases. But we also see the attempt by most to first string OSS developers along and then to capitulate when the FSF gets involved. Let’s see if Cisco will do the same or try to fight what is surely to be a losing battle as the GPL is now battle hardened in the  legal sense.
