This subsection has NOTHING to do with distribution. It has to do with transferability of license. In English, it means: This Work can be given to any third person under ths license. What it does not say: You must give this work away to anyone that asks. Look at Red Hat. They don't give away their object code. They don't need to. The GNU GPL V2 does not require them to. Section 3 (which I provided in a separate email) covers the distribution of the source code. -john -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
