Oron, We had this conversation a few weeks ago. You can always double license the application you develop, and in fact you can have a proprietary GPL application. Some examples: * MySQL * Qt4,Qt3 * OpenOffice (does StarOffice still exist?) * Asterisk * Zaptel (non GPL kernel code! bad boy!) * Xara (currently even the GPL "free" version links to a non GPL library) * VirtualBox I even remember about a Java application which was developed by one single man and a company hired him to continue the work of his application for them. They bought a GPL application. There are always workarounds for the GPL license, and you can make it "non free" on some situations. GPL does not provide you "full freedom". Whatever that means. Currently GPL is used by some companies to release code for the "linux community" and still be able to hide behine the GPL and continue their market domination on the market they gain money from Windows users, and the closed source market. - diego ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
