Summary:                    Edgewater Edgemarc 4200 and 4300T, no source
Description: 
Both of these devices, as seen
here(http://www.edgewaternetworks.com/edgemarc_overview_page.htm), run a
uClinux kernel and include BusyBox 0.60.5.

No source is included on the packaged CD or available on the Edgewater web
site, nor is there even a mention of the GPL.

I have recieved a reply from the vendor which pointed me to a somewhat
hidden link within the device's web GUI, and just as they said, the GPL
was contained in its entirety.

They did, however, admit that they had not been publishing source, and
with regards to both the GPL page in the GUI and the user guide, they had
this to say: "We will schedule an update to these components that include
a statement on how to obtain the source code."

As of yet there has not been any action beyond their email response, but
having dealt directly with quite a few Edgewater employees through my job
I believe they will be true to their word and solve this problem rapidly.
