The new Morpheus Preview Edition client [download.com] is
actually just a fork of Gnucleus an open source GPLd Gnutella client. Upon
installation Morpheus PE displays the GPL and asks the user to accept. It is
currently being distributed without source in violation of article 3 of the
GPL. Gnucleus developers are not too happy about this. This Morpheus client
is being downloaded by thousands of frustrated Morpheus users who have been
cutoff the FastTrack/Kazaa network and are now migrating to Gnutella. The
violation of the GPL is blatant and will also be the first glimpse of the GPL
for many of these new users. It seems like the executives at MusicCity have
decided that they prefer free 'as in beer' not 'as in speech.'" Update: 03/03
05:10 GMT by T: It looks like the source is available now, gpl.txt and all."
