No it doesn't. The GPL limits only what you can distribute. Eben Moglen even claims that the corporate EULAs which do try to restrict the use of software may not be enforceable. I agree with the rest of what you said though. A patch is considered a derived work, and the GPL states that by distributing a derived work, you implicitly GPL that work (since it would be illegal to distribute it otherwise). -- Jamie Webb _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
