Only for already released versions of the software if the author chooses to change the license. And I made it quite clear that I was talking about the situation where there was a single party in charge of the licensing. There are lots of ways for ongoing development to make older versions of software look inattractive. It is not uncommon for very expensive software to have previous versions distributed with magazines and similar channels as quasi-gift ware. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
