[linux-elitists] How is it possible to have a dual licensed Linux Distro.

[James Sparenberg]

All,

  I came across this today on Linux Devices.  Being less that savvy on the 
license side, I'm curious how someone thinks this can be done, as it looks 
like they are re-licensing GPL'd software.  

  The first line in this article 
-- http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS3953873333.html is "A company 
maintaining a dual-licensed Linux distribution for x86-based routers ....."  
and frankly to my puny mind seems like a big no no.  However I could be 
wrong.
