> Question: Why does there have to be a license at all for symbols? All "works" are, by default, copyright their author with all rights reserved. You must have *some* license, even if it's "do whatever you want", to allow copying.
For gEDA/PCB, we prefer the GPL because the programs themselves are GPL'd, so we can mix the program sources and library sources into a single distribution with a single license. Note that this license covers redistribution, not use - and it's intended to protect the software from abuse, and protect the recipient's right-to-use. It doesn't really act any different than the Eagle "terms" once they're in a design, though. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
