never underestimate a hacker. I used to be one. Not really worried about hackers though. Hackers only represent approx. 1% to 5% of the population anyways. and the loss from a hack is minimal
at this stage, i'm just evaluating some "tiny" website software. i'm an it manager / systems admin. Once we have a demo up and running with basics, that's when the developer will come in and tear everything apart, and replace software if needed. I'm on cherokee, because someone has recommended it. and i'm also evaluating its open source community: help factor ;) thanks On Sat, Dec 20, 2008 at 2:24 PM, Tim Post <[email protected]> wrote: > On Sat, 2008-12-20 at 01:51 +0100, Stefan de Konink wrote: >> William Ottley wrote: >> > yes I do. >> > but, let me clarify. >> > if the source code is available, including any modifications, then >> > thats exceptable correct? > > Compliance with the GPL also entails providing all build scripts that > you used to produce the binary.
