No, it has to be freely distributable, not GPL. A compiled Linux kernel is GPL, and so are most of its parts, but some are under the BSD, which is fine because that is a free distribution license that imposes no extra restrictions above the GPL. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please leave your values | Check your assumptions.
