That is not true. While, as external observers, we are not privy
to the settlement negotiations, the clear evidence is that Verizon
settled the case with the SFLC, given that GPL information and GPLed
sources appeared after the case was dismissed. Verizon now includes
information on the GPL in the manuals for its routers and makes the
source for their firmware available on their web site or by mail.
