I don't expect to get paid back, but I'd rather people not fuck with me after all my efforts, as the distros do. > Let me ask you this. > How many free software have you used your self? > For how many have you paid back? > At least with a "thank you" towards the authors? Not much worth thanking for there. Most of the good stuff is clones that I could have pirated anyway. It just happens that FOSS crap has become dominant among many of those programs. And for browser I use Opera. (Even warez groups, BTW, often tend to distribute their cracks alongside the pirated copy, instead of distributing modified binaries only. Yeah, and version is apparent from the file name listed by sites.) > If some thing in your license is just baggage then just remove it. I thought about that, but it was just simpler to extend the LGPL. -- Tuomo
