It's worthwhile reading Bradly Kuhn's blog at the Software Freedom Law
Center.

>From Bradley's blog:

"Like all GPL violations . . ., it's left to the copyright holders of
the software to engage in enforcement. I think it's great that, . . .
the Linux developers used the most common enforcement strategy in the
GPL community — quietly contact the company, inform them of their
obligations, and help them in a friendly way into compliance. That
process almost always works, and the fact that Microsoft came into
compliance shows the value of our community's standard enforcement
practice."
