Let's see, might as well do some wholesale answering. Plex86 is LGPL since we decided on a license in the beginning. Bochs has been LGPL'd for some time now. I still haven't decided what I want to do next. I plan to take as much time as needed. What else...yes Mandrake did fund me while I worked on Plex86. Bochs was previously a commercial license, but developed in the open. This did enable me to pay the rent while I worked on it, indeed a big help. People still contributed anyways. This licensing arrangement frustrated RMS who likes to see in B&W. But I have to hand it to many good people who helped, and who recognized shades of grey. Anyways, I'm working on neither at the moment. Back to my regularly scheduled program... -Kevin __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
