first of all, i'm sure the GPL would prevent me from selling it even if i developed it. secondly, it would be very difficult to sell as a 3rd party item. its like selling 3rd party chips for a car or xbox... if the car maker, or xbox itself offerred it, they would be far more successful. the idea is to push the main product anyway, not a 3rd party item. aubuti;174596 Wrote: > and btw, I'm neither offended nor angry.
