Somebody wants to hide something. Who -- the defendants or the SFLC?
It's hard to tell.
Why do you think anyone is hiding anything? For example,
<http://www.softwarefreedom.org/news/2008/mar/17/busybox-verizon/>
says
"As a result of the plaintiffs agreeing to dismiss the lawsuit
and reinstate Actiontec's and its customer's rights to distribute
BusyBox under the GPL, Actiontec has agreed to appoint an Open
Source Compliance Officer within its organization to monitor and
ensure GPL compliance, to publish the source code for the version
of BusyBox it previously distributed on its Web site, and to
undertake substantial efforts to notify previous recipients of
BusyBox from Actiontec and its customers, including Verizon, of
their rights to the software under the GPL. The settlement also
includes an undisclosed amount of financial consideration paid to
the plaintiffs by Actiontec."
I guess you can be enough of a nosey parker to want to know exactly
how much was paid, but otherwise there isn't anything secret about
the settlement terms.
