Topic: DriverPack Solution discussion
Hello everyone! I tested a different program to install the drivers. Also, and this, which is represented here. But I believe that the program "DriverPack Solution" is much easier and more convenient to use! This is my personal opinion!

well it is a one gig download and the server slow... so i would have to disagree...
at least Romeo is taking advantage of our unlimited bandwith...Neither one of you guys mentions us in your GUI But at least Romeo sends them here to get the packs
Kind of rude to repackage our packs (and the new version is $20) and not even mention us.So my vote is for Romeo !

If you release the modified version to the public in some way, the GPL requires you to make the modified source code available to the program's users, under the GPL.
I would like to see the source-code...please!
Sorry to hijack your thread Romeo91. At least you give us credit.

They have open source code for public
http://code.google.com/p/driverpacksolutionBut this is said on the forum. One of the programmers (BadPointer) did.

You're right. The code SVN is here: http://code.google.com/p/driverpacksolu … rowse/#svn

@Misha - I consider you guys to be low-lifes your app is totaly dependent on the DriverPacks. IE without our DriverPacks you would have nothing to offer AT ALL yet you never mention us at all not in the forum not in the app not in the about button of your app and yet you have copied our packs in their entirety without giving us so much as a nod... I have removed the link from your post. and I am fowarding this Info to Wim Leers... I for one am not happy that you are using our hard work without giving us credit for making your project even possable. Without our packs your project would be dead in the water IMHO. We will wait and see what Bâshrat the Sneaky thinks.

I'm terribly sorry for hijacking this tread.
I'm a developer of DriverPack Solution which was mentoined in this thread. I created a new tread for it and wrote a long post(it took me more then 3 hours). The tread was completely deleted without an explanation. If I had not enough problems with the way the the things were going lately, like turning the GPL project into a commercial software and asking me not to a new version of the program till users get their paid DVDs and spreading dangerous fakes of DriverPack Solution all over the Internet.
Yes, it's a very bad time to bring attention to the project and I'm ashamed to be a part of it right now. If it's inappropriate to explain and discuss the situation, please remove all the posts where DriverPack Solution is mentioned.

Agreed. We'll consider your request. Above posts may be deleted without further notice.
Thanks for letting us know.

That's a pretty bold accusation!
Ususally, we do not delete threads, we rather move them to our Trash archive were they serve as bad examples.
This is normally the case with spam, trolling or blatant advertising.
However, I could not find any thread, least post, of yours in there.
Seeing as our Mod staff board is rather small, it leaves only a handful of persons capable of deleting your post.
I know I haven't done it and I also know the others always give explanation to what they dislike in posts (handing out the first strike warning). Therefore, I consider it highly unlikely that it was not moved but deleted and also without comment.You're treating in very thin ice here.
If there's one thing we hate (apart from seeing our work being used without showing so much of common courteousness as giving credit, least asking for permission) it's making false accusations, refutable claims and telling the untruth.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No he is not making it up... I was aggravated by what was going on and hastily deleted it rather than moving it to the trash.
Wim scolded me for it. (@BadPointer) I am sorry. Thank you for understanding my frustration at this situation.
I am going to move the unrleated covo to its own thread
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright then, I'll take it back.
In any case, when we clean up this thread, after the tohuwabohu has been settled, the posts should be moved to Trash again.
Makes it easier to keep track of the failings of certain users
