Licensing Violations

@eduperez I'm not sure why that quote is being attributed to me but that's something that @RobertH said and that I quoted, not something I said

so what does the term "discontinued" mean to you?
Availability: Discontinued

This normally means the hardware is no longer manufactured, that's all.

Fixed, my apologies.

And then get flamed by everyone that knows what you did.

The keyword is "privately". When you distribute binaries then it's not private changes anymore.

Yes it does constitute distributing, GPL is called "strong copyleft license" for a reason. If you want to do shenanigans like that you must choose a project that has a permissive license like Apache or BSD or whatever.
