You have freedom to charge for the SERVICE of DISTRIBUTING the software (which I said :-), not the freedom of charging for the software itself. Yes, I know I'm being pedantic, but when you're dealing with the law pedanticism matters :-) (GPL v2 contains some bugs, and some people actively exploit those bugs as features ...) Cheers, Wol
