How slow is "very slow" ? What is "certain source code"? Why is the OP being so coy about describing the problem?

Here is the form:

This is interesting:

> We might charge you a fee to cover the cost of processing. Your request must be sent according to whichever of the following rules applies:

> Within three years of the date you received the product from Google that included the component or binary files that are the subject of your request.

That "three years" is the minimum named in the GPLv2: https://opensource.org/license/gpl-2.0

> How slow is "very slow?" The answer can be found two replies after: > Initially, Google would usually provide access to the tarballs within a couple hours. Lately, they're often taking weeks to get back to us. They're the ones who chose to use this archaic system instead of pushing Git tags and it's their responsibility to handle requests promptly.

> What is "certain source code"? The OP seems to be GrapheneOS, which heavy patches AOSP. I guess the context is Android source code and its security patches.

> Why is the OP being so coy about describing the problem? Not sure what you mean, I think they are explicit enough. I guess it's clear enough for developers how an upstream update should go. If people depend on big projects like AOSP, devs should be prompt in delivering source code, especially when it is mandatory by license.

Can you give us more details on how/why you think the OP is being coy?
