The main requirement with providing binaries of GPL/LGPL software is that the source code is available "from the same place" as the binaries (i.e. you can't just provide a URL to the source on a different site). If you're providing a complete VM image including the OS, the requirement to provide full source code could be fairly onerous. The fact that the software runs on a proprietary OS isn't an issue. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grassuser mailing list grassuser@grass.itc.it http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grassuser
