Microsoft Windows 7 tool gets GPL-friendly

Microsoft raised eyebrows last month when it released a Windows 7 download tool that included improperly licensed open source code. But now, the software giant is making amends. CodeGuru has the story.
After first pulling a Windows 7 download tool that inadvertently contained improperly licensed open-source code from its online store a few weeks ago, Microsoft said Thursday it has fixed the problem.
The so-called Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool is back online and is now duly licensed under conditions required by the open source license.
