They have distributed the software to the public-facing machine, so it's much the same as any other distribution to the public, I think. Presumably, the only reason you don't hear of this issue much is that it's widely accepted that any two people in the same room should happily share free software between themselves. The Affero license would make this a requirement even if you're providing that software remotely over the web, as I understand things. So, if you even gave someone access to Firefox through a remote desktop connection, you would be obliged to provide them with the source code.... if my position is correct ;) -- Lee Braiden http://peaceforge.org Lake shadows color of cold, Willow branches weep ice.
