Let me clarify .. It has been a long time since I read it. As I recall, it is a closed-club license. Members of the club get to use it any way they want, and get the right to make and sell proprietary derivative works. Non-members can only use it by buying a product from one of the members, and do not get source. It is not in our best interest to join the club, but it might make sense to have an affiliate that is a member that can provide an interface. The interface will probably need to be distributed without source. _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list geda-dev@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
