I am curious as to what, if any, remedial actions by Apple would cause
the GNU folks to end their boycott.

It would be most interesting to see a demand for such remedial actions
placed in front of Apple shareholders at the shareholder's meeting, along
the lines of the proxy questions on the last IBM proxy ballot.

A couple of shares of Apple stock isn't that expensive, and any shareholder,
even a trivial one, usually has an easy time of putting something to a
proxy vote.
