Sure, he can do that. But do not make any more excuses. No one cares if he
was here or there or did not have enough time to put out the source.
You have to make time or don't put anything out. Excuses about these sorts
of things are all very lame excuses and no one, except the very gullible,
could believe them.

Take responsibility for using the GPL and think ahead. It is no ones problem
what someone else is doing. Other people develop GPL software and they put
the source out at the very same time as the binaries as they are supposed to.

I have no more patience for excuses. Others may not have heard them yet,
but let me be the first one to point them out, when I read any more. Stick to
those things which are relevant, the license conditions and very little else.
