Da li je Microsoft "pozajmio" GPL kod za Win 7 program?

[blueskynis]

Postoji velika mogućnost da je Microsoft, po ko zna koji put, "pozajmio" GPLv2 licencirani kod, u ovom slučaju ImageMaster projekta, za svoj program Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool.

While poking through the UDF-related internals of the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool, I had a weird feeling there was just wayyyyyyyyy too much code in there for such a simple tool. A simple search of some method names and properties, gleaned from Reflector’s output, revealed the source code was obviously lifted from the CodePlex-hosted (yikes) GPLv2-licensed ImageMaster project. (The author of the code was not contacted by Microsoft.)
