The way I see it if company X is selling access to some SaaS application. Let's say an on-line personal finance manager, and changes nothing in the web2py code: * it is not redistributing anything (web2py or app) * It is not claiming to have built web2py * It is charging money for usage of the personal finance functionality. Is it clear to the user it's not charging money for the framework? I think so. Because, from the user's point of view, it seems irrelevant which is the underlying framework. Let's say that company X contracted someone (me? :-) to develop their app. For company X it's clear that web2py is GPL'ed that they are only paying for the app code. I'm not a lawyer and I suppose most of you are not too, but what is your view on this. Also, I would like to mention that I addressed this post to Massimo because, being the original author, I suppose he his in a good position to clarify this question. But I think, this could be a relevant subject to other people in the community. Miguel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
