Don't know. Google uses many open source software. It was asked to
give something back.
Yes, that could mean financial ties to the letter, I guess.
The open source community had for many years a strong opinion
about software patents. The open source community was shocked from
when it happened by the litigation of Oracle.
Financial ties may be disclosed, but turning them in publication-
for-payment looks me rather insulting for the people that
expressed their opinion.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

This is tne point at which Google literally buries the judge with data. 100+
DVDs with 9GB of data on each, listing nothing but names and contact
information of eberybody who has ever had anything close to a passing
relationship of any kind with any of the organizations or groups it has
contributec money to, in the last two years.(name, phone number, email
address, organization, known blogs, known social networking sites, known
forum hangouts, etc)[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
