GPL: Re: Where can I order the source-code of Knoppix?

[Stephen Samuel <samnospam@bcgreen.com>]

If Klaus were  to ensure that all of the sources were on the same site 
that he distributes the
ISOs from then there would be no need to include the 3 year offer, since 
anybody interested
in the sources could get them at the same time as they get the binaries.

(I think that, to keep the GPL3 happy, all you'd have to do is include 
an ISO (or even just a tar) with copies of all the related sources. I 
can't see that there'd be a need to include it all on the same ISO 
image(s) as the binaries.)
