After accepting the GPL they have the right to charge whatever the market will bear for copies of the derivative. What they do not have and never had is the right to charge for licenses for it. Of course, as IBM is presently teaching SCO, if they can disentangle the portion of the derivative that is entirely of their authorship from the derivative they can do with it as they please. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI USA _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
