> then he argues that anyone shipping source in tarballs is noncompliant:

I think he might be referring to the section 2a of GPLv2 (5a of GPLv3) which require keeping track of modifications to the source code. I've never seen this clause being enforced, though. (IANAL)

I also wishes there were some sort of collaboration rather than an outright dismissal.
