This is not correct.  I knew the Apache license was more strict than
(and therefore incompatible with) GPL-2, but that was the patent
retalliation clause.  I read the license now, and it doesn't require
distributors to offer their source code, so I don't think there's any
way he can legally be forced to not do this.

Thanks,
Bas
