Man oh man. Hyman Rosen managed to find out that SFLC wants scripts...
yet "PRAYER FOR RELIEF" doesn't mention scripts.

Of course not. The prayer for relief is simply asking the
defendant to stop illegally distributing the plaintiff's
software, and to compensate everyone for having done so.

The only license the defendant has for distributing this
software requires that sources, including scripts, be
distributed or made available with it. Since the defendant
is not doing that, he is not distributing under this license,
and therefore is distributing illegally.
