sorry, you're absolutely correct. I'm a long term debian user and I tend to say one or the other as a short hand which is a terrible habit because they are completely different things.... I'll check out the differences between the BSD and GPL (and subversions) and all that red tape required to coerce people into being reasonably well mannered,and decide when I come to release it. Basically I want a very strong license so that anyone who uses it has to be free and respectful about it...I don't want people putting a GUI on my masters project and then trying to claim it is all theirs and sell it or something, I also don't want some cheeky company taking my ideas and patenting them as if they were their own (and then possibly suing me for using 'their' idea some way down the line -- apparently this is happening)
