GPL Kerfuffle Takes Xbian For Raspberry Pi Offline

Posted by timothy on from the oh-you-mean-that-was-a-license dept.

tetrahedrassface writes "Rasbmc developer Sam Nazarko is reporting that Xbian had violated the GPL and stolen his installer code without providing attribution and not releasing their source. His breakdown of events is interesting, and currently the Xbian project has been taken offline with several tweets saying Xbian development is terminated."
