The Affero GPL is indeed a free software license.

I've enjoyed using several pieces of software from Creative Commons over the years, not least their own web site. Their current plans for software are exciting and sound in my opinion. That said, one of the good things about Free Software is that should development cease on a program you use, you can continue to use it and to modify it to meet your needs should you wish to. - - Rob. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUi8v4AAoJECciMUAZd2dZU30H/2vq6/CaQ/Yu2ElVzG8de7fT YqKrzBP4E9GY6K2t+n4q8zMl8Ff7SX32RvB1dAsIvbLvwqnU4wGrhQJg2nx/bANS /Xvwy58j7qXlD4RgFoaFA5Xg0ZQZPomkH/7zYqvK5Kgrhx+BmRZcwKnwh6gtaau7 R6K+q687I/3E0BC0RuSe7CpQSGKoTVzw+gqUcvgN4U5ccXDfHeA4I3mV+j86fnVJ QqTAfpfsx3q6bYt/goN8JxRmiDLfUR6s3qnK3pAfuQ0QFYZXgWyyNqphdiLRb5Sx Z6cGwAFRAjdqe7a+JbVsOzPiwTr1/3iftu8tYWuav6brXTid8mMDRq17TrJDyvI= =rpvZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ cc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/cc-devel
