The GPL does not require you to release your modified version, or any part of it." The GPL purports to restrict the statutory right (17 USC 109) to distribute: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#UnchangedJustBinary "I downloaded just the binary from the net. If I distribute copies, do I have to get the source and distribute that too? Yes. The general rule is, if you distribute binaries, you must distribute the complete corresponding source code too." _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
