What if I wish to translate the source code from Scriptol to Python? Would I still be required to distribute the orginal Scriptol sources? And if someone translated my Python code to Ruby, would they now be obligated to distribute the Scriptol and Python versions? Or does this merely mean that you are requiring the use of Scriptol? > - I want also the web address specified in the license. I lawyer needs to answer this, because I am a mere laymen. But I have always considered the copyright notice to be distinct from the license text. Since the web address is in the copyright notice, no one can change it anyway, regardless of license. Unless you wish the web address to be "viral", I think this is a non issue. One other point: The second sentence of the license is placing obligtions upon YOU the licensor.
