Hi all: Jay Michaelson, Co-Founder Wasabi Systems, wrote an insightful article on software licenses in Vol 2, No. 3 (May 2004) issue of ACM Queue magazine.
There's No Such Thing as a Free (Software) Lunch, What every developer should know about open source licensing is available at http://www.acmqueue.org/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=153 It's one thing to look at software licensing as a script coder, and completely different when you are a infrastructure software developer, OEM or embedded system software developer. Hope this helps see the perspective. thanks Saifi.
