The only thing I think you failed to mention, George, is that the GPL requires *any* use of the software, be it "free" or "commercial", must include the original source code with the distribution, with a note prominently recognizable saying the distribution is GPL and the GPL is included in the distribution. I'm not sure any other license (I don't know for sure, this is just my understanding) has the stipulation that the source must *always* be distributed with anything derived from it. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 07:40:00 up 30 days, 15:49, 3 users, load average: 0.07, 0.04, 0.19 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/alfs-discuss FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
