The current GPL doesn't require you to share the keys that actually turn on your motor. "Here is the complete software code, minus the crypto keys the binaries need to be signed with to run at all and other vital configuration details. Have fun." Root Mean Squared (A.I. researcher who acquired electrifying superpowers while attempting to reverse engineer a printer driver) is very cross about this, but his sidekick Penguin the kernel hacking boy wonder thinks it's cool that the supervillians and phone companies don't need to share the secrets of their sharks with lasers on their heads. -HJC _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
