This is not a flaw. It is a feature. If you don't want to share in that way, don't use the BSD style of license. Many people adpot a BSD license because that is exactly what they want to happen. To call it a flaw is inaccurate. From the licensee's point of view, a flaw to one, is a feature to another. -- Dan Langille : Software Developer looking for work my resume: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
