So... if someone needs a proprietary licence for Busybox, it will most 
certainly be to run on a *proprietary licened Linux*... quite absurd!!!

I have followed this thread and nowhere I have seen two important points:

1) a GPLed software like Busybox can be used in a proprietary product, 
as long as not linked at all with the proprietary part. Even in an 
embedded it can be used.

2) Why is this person (I don't remember how the thread started) need a 
proprietary licece at all, instead of simply following the guidelines 
and use Linux+Busybox for free?

just my 2c,
Alain
