Honeycomb source code released -- by Asus, not Google

  This is bogus, the kernel bits are GPL so they were already released by Google... Edit: additionally, why link to slashdot instead of a source? Is it submitted by a bot?

    And, this isn't the "Honeycomb" source code, it's the kernel source code... See: http://h-online.com/-1224722 http://h-online.com/-1224722

  Isn't that the way it should work? Asus is distributing GPL code they release it per GPL. Google released it to their customers (obviously or Asus wouldn't have been able to release it.) This whole tempest in a tea kettle is getting annoying.
