You can use slurs all you want. I'm citing an accepted definition to clear a misconception. By the way, I don't even like Richard Stallman, and I won't be part of the FSF much longer. FreeDOS claims to be a free system with all software released under "open source" licenses (which was a term invented in an attempt to make the "free software" term less confusing and more friendly to businesses). Anyway, all I noticed is that someone made a claim that this compiler couldn't have been released under the Boost license because the original site is still asking a fee for a copy of the source. Because the Boost license is a free license, we can already toss out this claim, because it goes against the definition without even having to get into the specifics. The FSF, OSI, and others have already done the looking for us. It may very well be the case that this compiler has not actually been relicensed under the Boost license, but the fee is not evidence of this. > still annoying. Get over it. No one's forcing you to read it, and it doesn't get in the way of the actual message. It's an email signature, and almost everyone has had them for a long time. Happy Hacking, David E.
