That's right, it's "HTC continues to violate the GPL" time!

No source for HTC EVO Shift 4G yet ('Speedy'). I mailed, asking:
Hello. I require support code for kernel version 2.6.32.21-gcd7abbd on my EVO Shift 4G, according to the GNU General Public License. Please send it immediately. Thanks, joshua

Philip responded:
I understand that you are looking for the source code for your EVO Shift. HTC will typically publish on http://developer.htc.com the Kernel open source code for recently released devices as soon as possible. HTC will normally publish this within 90 to 120 days. This time frame is within the requirements of the open source community. Please continue to check developer.htc.com for the code to be posted. If you should need anything else, please feel free to contact us again.

To which I've thus far responded:
That's not true; that time frame is not within the requirements of the open source community. We had this discussion with the HTC EVO 4G (see ticket 10USCW53ENA000438), which ended in HTC releasing the source. Let's save both of us the breath this time.

and the rest )
We'll see what happens. I'm getting sick of this.

e: Overnight, source was released. It would be nice if I didn't have to go through this each time.
