He wasn't meeting the GPL license by not releasing the source code from his kernel, so he was warned and invited to leave after that.

Adam Kernel Source

So, looks like someone got hold of the kernel for the Adam from NI, post from NIH's blog:
I like it when members are kind and willing to share…
Zero,
I’m a registered member of the Notion Ink Hacks community and a developer myself. I sometimes hang out in the IRC and watch Roebeet, Rothnic, Rayman, DJ_Steve, Dougie and yourself work on various projects and find myself astounded by the talent. One of the things that I would like to do as a token of my appreciation is leak the Kernel source and some additional goodies to you and the entire Notion Ink Community. You all have waited far too long for this.

That zip is 512 megs... kinda big for kernel sources... maybe they forgot to "make clean" before zipping? Or is there other source in there besides the kernel?
Also, shame this has to "leak"... hopefully there will be a proper Notion Ink source drop (in compliance with the GPL) when the code is more mature?

It's a GIT repository, so that why it's so big.
This kernel source take only 80 megs.

Yeah, NI aren't actually complying with the GPL by not releasing it at the moment so it's a shame this hasn't come through official channels.

If its true, WOOOO!! I have been sending official requests to them, using the GPL licence for the basis of my request (pointing out that not publishing the source code for the already shipping compiled code, was a GPL violation, and violation of the Legal contract on their page...).. i would love to think all of our prodding would make it happen faster...
I checked, and the code listed here IS the new source code. I dont know if i helped, but i am glad it did not take the weeks predicted...

If by "fix" you mean use the fix after it's added to CM7, then yeah.
which kind of improvements and/or new functionalities could we expect from this source? I saw on development thread that dalingrin starded working on this, but at the moment the ROM is really unusable... how will this merged into CM7?
Thanks to all s here at xda!

[DEV] CyanogenMod development for Olympus

Seeing as how the previous thread for cm was closed due to peoples *****ing. Thought i would start another that might actually be helpful.

i have to goals
compile aosp
compile cm7
so hopefully we can gather all this wefforts into one and speed it up. anyone that wants to pull/commit to my github feel free to do so. let me know by twitter so i can get the request quick and everyone can be up to date.

We should start a github organization for this, so people can participate and add stuff without doing pull request all the time... massive pull requests get old fast

well i will help where i can, currently i do not have a ton of time for atrix but, I probably can work a little each day, I ran the extract-files.sh and through up the build files and gave it a make just to get an idea of where its at... we should compile a list of things that need to be done so we can work and check things off as we go , like I said though thanks everyone for the start ... your much further than I was *I am more on the AOSP route but hay it all works the same

[Q] Is it possible to play "Draw Something"?

with the current buzz of DrawSomething, I thought I would check it out but it doesn't seem to fit within the screen resolution of the galaxy mini.
does anyone know if it is possible to resize/change something in the APK file to get it to fit?
thanks in advance
as far as I know you can't, because it's not compatible with our "legacy"devices
as for editing the apk to fit your need you must get a permission from the developer to do that; or you will be kicked in the a**(just kidding)
It is possible if you get it from other sources, its difficult because of the size issue - but still fun!
As for resizing it, I've thought about it, maybe try it today

When you say you decompiled it, do you mean you unzipped the APK file? Or are there more steps to it?

Not if it's floss you don't, you don't need to ask permission even if they say so as long as it's under a correct license and you can't mix licences even under V2 of the GNU public license.
You might wonder how MIUI can be proprietary, well they can't and are not any more.
You can take anything and change it in any way without asking permission as long as you redistribute it under the same version of GNU licence.
AND YOU CAN DO SO IN ANY WAY YOU PLEASE.
When someone says that you can't, it just means they don't have a clue about the licence, the code or the intentions of the floss community, give them the finger and be done with them.

STOP GPLv2 VIOLATION

Once again oneplus has violated the GNU GPLv2! But this time I will not be watching! I want to act, I'm fed up with the lack of source code!
I wrote issues in kernel repos (linux) for Oneplus 5

Not updated
4.5.7 might not have required kernel changes...
---------- Post added at 08:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 AM ----------
Also the owner of the kernel has a few days to post it.. Usually after the update has completely rolled out.
Two things.
First might want to have a look at what Linus has said before about it, before he hurts your feelings.
Second. Good luck really doing anything. As OnePlus is out of China nothing anyone can do will make a difference.
I am not saying it is right, just giving you a heads up.

I was told by a kernel developer the company/person has 30 days from the full roll out of the update to update the kernel source. I think you need to learn about GPL licensing. One+ has done a great job at releasing source even though some commits are squashed together.

He is wrong. The gpl doesn't allow for any lapse between release and source posting. It has to be made available the same time the kernel is released. As we know not everyone follows it.

The GPL license does not have a specified time for release. The most common interpretation is immediately but that is not explicitly stated anywhere. So my answer is still correct. Also my friend works for an OEM.

Saying he works for an oem doesn't mean a lot. Many oem violate the gpl every day.
It is stated that it has to be made available upon request. Which means at any time after the kernel is released. Doesn't matter if it is 30 days or 30 seconds. It has to be made available.
