Will you not suggest me any nokia or motorola mobile to net access under Linux OS. I want to take a post paid connection of Spice, Airtel. I can not afford reliance mobile. you mean that I have to purchase a serial port to connect the mobile with Linux os PC. I am confused about the cable. One cable is with USB & Serial or I have to purchase two cables. Vijay Thakur Chandigarh Yahoo!

> I think even MySQL comes with this type of license. It > is (to me) difficult to understand the thinking behind > this scheme. Since my company offers a product with a GPL/MySQL type dual licensing too, I can explain the rationale quite easily : If you are using our product to help others and not making any money off it, you are welcome to use it under GPL without paying us anything. OTOH, if you are making lots of money from something based on *our* hardwork, we want to get paid for our hard work too. We are after all a company. And most(if not all) companies operate on a profit model of some sorts, since the deveopers working for them expect to be paid. Think of it like this. A lot of opensource developers work on their project just part-time since some of them do need the cash from a job or business, to feed the mouths at home. In the other scenerion, the company is giving them an opportunity to work on the opensource project fulltime, since now they are getting a salary. Don't you think the opensource projects will benefit, if the opensource developers gave 100% of their working time to their project instead of supporting it just on their free time ? > Some rambling thoughts: If the intention is to promote > open source, then it doens't make sense to make the > code available under any license other than GPL.

Is > it the open source developer who contributes time and > code, or is it just the company. The intention is to make money from people who can afford to part with it. If you want to use a product for your personal use, GPL doesnt stops you. If on the other hand, you are planning to mint money through mass-distribution by using someone *else*'s work(even if it is in part), only fair that they get their share too. Who benefits financially? The opensource developer *does* gets paid a salary or at least gets a financial contract. Does he gets paid a fair salary ? That is a different question altogether and depends on the company ethics. Cathedral and the Bazaar addressed a few ways of making money from the opensource model. This is just another one. Unless ofcourse, you have a psychological aversion to the idea of making cash, in which case you are welcome to send your paycheck/bank balance to me coming month.. ;) Regards, Abhi ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

[ilugd] hi
Hello Mr. Mathur, I just had a question; I have heard that a normal Linux user can make changes (by some means) into the files of another normal Linux user. Is it possible??

If the intent is to earn good karma through open sourcing/GPL and also make the product financially viable by selling to those who can afford it under more restrictive license, who benefits financially? Is it the open source developer who contributes time and code, or is it just the company. My intention is to understand the business model behind companies like MySQL and JBoss (and trolltech, Codeweavers, transgaming) a little bit better. Any comments/clarifications? IMHO, 1. The standard wider developer base - Opening up a product like this makes thousands of skilled programmers looking at it and making it more robust. In a simple business logic, you require only a few highly skilled people (like trolltech does) to maintain such an extensive cross-platform commercial toolkit. Of course, to start with, your product should be good enough for these thousands on (unpaid) skilled programmers looking at it and making it more robust. Because of this kind of licensing, projects like KDE have sprung up - can you think of a better commercial development model? Here is a commercial project, which if close sourced would require 10x more people to maintain. And think about the kind of test bed that QT has today, spread over n number of OSes! As far as I remember, QT started out in a very raw shape - over time it has become so much more complete in all ways, simply because of this helpful community around it. 2. The dual licensing is a very tempting way to induce people into buying licenses. Your in-house developers can take a close look at the API, the visual IDE. Both the developers and the management can take a look at the available software and see what is possible. It is just another model of doing business. There is no one way of making money. Some people simply are not comfortable enough thinking how their licences might be violated in such an arrangement - maybe the likes of M$ might be a good example - they simply dont want to leave any stone unturned in how to make money out of every possible opportunity. On the other end, people like Trolltech are more permissive - they know fully well that there will be the occasional person abusing the freedom that they have got. However, they rather concentrate on the good people - and how to increase their ilk as part of their business. And they believe (like I do), that there are enough good people in this world to make a living out of, ... and more importantly they are satisfied with that. - Sandip -- Sandip Bhattacharyahttp://www.sandipb.net sandip at puroga.com Puroga Technologies Pvt.

Hi! Everyone
I have a confusion regarding licencing of Qt
designer.
A copy of Qt designer is shipped with Redhat 9.0. The
About dialog this copy says it is under GPL, whereas
the website of Trolltech(company which made Qt) says
Qt is made available under comercial licence.
Any one can make it clear whether Qt is under GPl or
not.
