If you want to have a copy of Cinelerra on your computer and make videos and do commercial things with the videos, yes, that's allowed (at least as far as Cinelerra's license is concerned). If you want to sell copies of Cinelerra for other people to use, that's allowed too, but by doing so you incur certain obligations - in particular, you must allow anyone who receives a copy to redistribute it and to modify it, which implies that they must have access to the source code. If you want to sell binary-only copies and forbid redistribution, or take parts of the Cinelerra software and build them into a commercial product that will not be freely distributable, that's not allowed. -- Matthew Skala msk...@ansuz.sooke.bc.caEmbrace and defend. http://ansuz.sooke.bc.ca/ ___ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra

BUT of course you are most welcome to donate to the developers. if you can manage to make money out of free software, you might feel inclined to spend some of it for the good purpose. :-) georg (non-developer, non-donor, just dumb user who makes no money.)

Hi Marko, ...to expand on this. The special "open source" license is relevant only if you create other *software* based on the *source code* of an open source application. In that case you're bound to make your modifications open source too. But *using* an application has nothing to do whatsoever with programming (hehe).
