Having discussed licence compliance with Bradley on a couple of occasions where I had purchased products from companies that used Linux and were not complying with the licences (Avocent and Onkyo to name two of them), he does a fantastic job on such a small budget. Unfortunately in both these cases the companies were able to continue their licence non-compliance because neither of us had the time or resources to pursue the issues further (both companies refused to comply so legal action was the only way forward), so any additional funding for the Software Freedom Conservancy is money well spent for anyone who believes in software freedom.
