that sounds reasonable. I know some software which can be used under several free licenses (e.g. mbed TLS) or also a mix of free and (paid) commercial licenses. But I'm not sure if "assignment" is applicable in all countries under all circumstances. I'm not a lawyer but the (US-) copyright is IMHO different from e.g. german "Urheberrecht" and AFAIK you can never "lose" your "Urheberrecht" in Germany. sincerely, Frank _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [email protected] https://list.lpi.org/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
