Re: [Bug 64775] Re: mislabeled as "freeware" when you do faac --help

technically this is true, freeware is software that is no cost. But it
implies to most people that it is proprietary freeware. And not "free
software", or ""open source"". The program is GPLv2 seems like it
would confuse people to call it freeware. o well;

2006-10-09 Thread Jan Claeys
Freeware is cost-free software that can be distributed freely and can be used 
by everyone, so it *is* freeware.
(You can always try to convince the upstream author to change this though...)

** Changed in: faac (Ubuntu)
