Bring it on I say if its a GPL compliant request.
I charge $90 per hour of work to download and package the sources
and put onto dvds and send (+p&p + taxes + cost of DVDs + I supply

GPL is free as in freedom not price as you know. Its a license to print
money from thin air if you know how to work it. What you say
applies to the little people who want to shield their code.
I have dim views on intentional abuse of GPL.

I'm in the process of ordering 8Gb uSD cards to out complete self

can put a ubuntu 12.04.3 on it with my desktop set up, KiCAD and all
the design files for SoM2, and all the notes, and, and, and..
