Hi, Although I am completely in development and havent ever looked into legal matters, I think there are basically two kinds of General Public License.
One is free for development and redistribution whereas the other one says : free for development , but not for redistribution. This site gives you a good description of each of them. http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WritingFSWithNFLibs I basically fail to digest why people release something as FreeSource?I understand it is done to bring out the best. If so, then why is this concept not extended to other forms of "Engineering"? Why don�t people build bridges for free, why don�t people construct marvellous buildings for free?so that others can emulate and design better buildings? Is it that human effort goes unpaid? Or do they get involved in a long term investment. Ramki.
