(I'm not a lawyer as well =) However, the license of the projects using those GPLed codes must be the GPLed as well, even if it is used only internally. This means that any worker of the company that uses the software must have access to the source *and* the right to do anything with it (obviously, permitted by the GPL). He [the worker] may actually even redistribute the software to their competitor without violating the license. -- Felipe. _______________________________________________ Soya-user mailing list Soya-user@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/soya-user
