+How to (not) use GPL Software
+GPL And Embedded Systems
+
+The "Scripts"
+(scripts to control compilation and installation, see earlier slide)
+In case of embedded hardware, the "scripts" include:
+Tools for generating the firmware binary from the source (even if they are technically no 'scripts')
+
+
+Embedded DRM
+Intent of License is to enable user to run modified versions of the program. They need to be enabled to do so.
+Result: Signing binaries and only accepting signed versions from the bootloader (without providing the signature key or a possibility to set a new key in the bootloader) is not acceptable!
