Yes, you're 100% right there. > And I can't see why you would be requested to throw them out if you > ask for refund and uninstall the application (??) Interesting point, the refund mechanism does make demanding proof of payment a fairly futile way of "circumventing" the GPL. > So here again, it also raises ethic problems :-p I wouldn't consider those ethical problems. id Software clearly released the Doom engine under the GPL licence, not public domain. Therefore, the rules of GPL apply regardless of the problems raised by payment refunds and source distribution methods. The developer might demand proof of payment, but if his demands are unreasonable you can easily discuss your case with the SFLC (http://www.softwarefreedom.org/). All of this assumes that the developer refuses to offer the source code, so far he/she hasn't done anything wrong :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
