This is true. Well sort of. From what I understand about open-source, you can sell a version of an open-sourced software but you still have to give it freely to the community. Basically you can modify it and offer a support fee. I never double checked this, but that is my current understanding. Like Redhat, Costs $50 but you can always download it from their site without the book or phone/onsite support.

Yippee... Soon we will be ready to release a FB3 version 1. err umm Well what I mean is, we will have a full mature methodology and a good set of tools to go along with it. All open sourced of course. Some of the ones like Adalon and mind mapper are great, but I think we need comparable tools that stick to the open source concept. my .5 cents worth, change please. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Nelson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 6:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Fusedoc Parsers For you, i'll put a form field so you can type in your root directory.
