Can you point me to the section/paragraph that says this?
Oops sorry about that. I meant, the GPL forbids commercial binary-only redistribution of derived works.

I may use Apache or BSD licensde code. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
