One, the base one (all the stuff under GPL and family license) and one the upgrade (all the things, like Pumpyhead's F-16 model, these textures and many other stuff found on the net). Cause the problem is that 90% of material on the net is mostly non-GPLed, it's only mentioned for free, non-commercial etc. and we can't now just request every author, to relicense his work especially for us. So Redhat, Suse, Mandrake and others should include only the base packge and exec, but for the upgrade, users should download them separately.On Fri, 15 Aug 2003 23:16:36 +0200, Matevz Jekovec <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:I found this page: http://www.dlr.de/caf/satellitendaten/missionen/ikonos It includes some of the larger German and some other European cities.

The GPL does not bar anyone from selling FG commercially under the GPL.
