   I think you should explain under what conditions you would stop the
   boycott.  Usually this is done when the violation has ceased, i.e.  they
   stop copying your product illegally.  Is it also necessary that they
   release the source for versions already copied?  

I think that this is a good idea, that the conditions be spelled out.

I would like to see a similar set of conditions to be spelled out to
end FSF's boycott of Apple.
