</div>While your statement might sound reasonable on the surface, I do not<br>
believe it actually complies with the GPL. As a distributor of GPLd<br>
software, you are responsible for providing the source. The fact that<br>
the source is available elsewhere does not absolve you of the<br>
responsibility, just like the source being available for RHEL does not<br>
absolve the CentOS project from needing to provide the source they use<br>
to build the CentOS binaries.<br></blockquote><div><br>If someone asks, I will provide the source. I don´t believe anywhere in the GPL it makes the explicit requirement to upload the sources to a public web server.<br><br>
