No it is entirely right and you are showing that you do not even know
the most basic thing about the GPL. Everybody who has read the GPL
properly knows what I wrote is true.

Get of the high horse of moral superiority here. You are wrong, so this
statement is really ridiculous after the fact.

I never claimed the person "failed to distribute software under the GPL".
I always claimed that the GPL was being violated.

Here we have yet another person who is probably responding out of emotion than
logic. Go back and check every message I wrote. You will not find me having
written what you said.

An apology for making false accusations would be fitting.

I always believed the software is under the GPL and that is why I pursued this
matter in the first place. To make sure everyone gets their guaranteed rights
in accord with the license the program is being distributed under.

You might want to read the multiple times I wrote something to that effect
also.
