Haven't seen the license you have mentioned here with prohibition of redistribution but it reminds me a license that Novell had released some time ago mentioning a disabling function inside the distro. It read... *"...The Software may contain an automatic disabling mechanism that prevents its use after a certain period of time, so You should back up Your system and take other measures to prevent any loss of files or data..." *Refer: Slashdot <http://news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/06/19/1834219> I don't understand how does this clause fits in with the GPL.
