but that is actually what i am referring too. i cant include GPL software in my program unless i make my program open source. and for me that is restrective because thousands of companies produce propriatery software, i am not in the position in my company to release the software as open source, and in fact, being a small company if a larger company did have the code we would be completely sunk. now i cannot use any GPL software in the program but i can use LGPL or BSD or MIT software because then i only need make that specific portion of the program open source. so i still stand that GPL is less free and restrictive, and inface counter productive. _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
