I read that as "your friend can download it for non-commercial use &
then distribute it to you for free under the GPL for you to use for
commercial purposes".
I don't agree. In my opinion the legal status of this document is that
it carries two licences but no option to freely chose between them if
you're using it commercially...
I meant to say in my last post - this is, in this instance, a pretty
academic argument.
The licensing cost for DansGuardian is pennies (less than £0.50 on 100
machines, for big ISPs less than £0.15) per machine. The cost of
getting a lawyer to interpret our arguments would surely exceed this,
and the money would be far better spent supporting the author of this
open-source software.
But I like academic arguments. :D
