Felix originally used BSD because (a) it contained BSD code (such as Elkhound, Cil etc) (b) the licence is dead simple (c) it has the spirit of researchers making the results of their work PUBLIC with a long tradition behind it (namely .. Unix itself!) These days I'd argue for Creative Commons, but really I don't care because I'm an Anarchist and I don't believe in intellectual property ownership in the first place :) Despite a lot of rubbish law .. the facts are: if you put it on the net and advertise it and don't attempt to hide it behind a password or whatever YOUR ACTIONS ARE THOSE OF GIVING AWAY YOUR RIGHTS and no claim of Copyright holds credence. Anyhow the other licence I like is the one used by C++ BOOST. Specifically crafted to ensure everyone could use the libraries without encumberance. -- john skaller skal...@users.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
