Cool, glad to hear it.  Getting slammed with the "Oh crap, we're 
polluted" thing at the last minute can really cause heartburn.

  Yes, we have been very careful on that. Actually all of the code in
the "core" system (what you know as Lince) is under GPL, LGPL, BSD
except antivirus (if used). We have done some improvements to some of
the GPL apps used but they are in the core too as GPL (of course).

  MarteGUI is just a manager that connects to a system, donwloads a
config database, parses new configuration files, copies them to the
system and restarts services as needed. In essence, it mimics the
commands the admin executes. That way we dont have problems with GPL.

  Actually we are thinking on using their hardware to port our software
solution. BTW, we have done the same with a Crossbeam X40 system :)

  Some of the features some people are asking about in the list (mainly
easy perdurable updates and flexibility) have been incorporated in
Lince, but this release has not been made public. The reason? In this
time our company has gone a major redo and has been very hard to explain
to our business angels that it was a good idea to release to the public
something we have done and are charging our clients :)


Do you have a strategy for doing this while remining compliant with the 
terms of the software you have licensed (the GPL)?


Netgear and linksys are two very profitable organizations who produce 
GPL derived router products and release the source code and development 
kits for their GPL based products.
