You have to actually receive a distribution to have GPL rights. Merely having access to somebody else's copy is not enough. The system owner can indeed tell you what uses you are and are not allowed, just as a cashier has legitimate access to the contents of the cash register, but isn't allowed to just share out the change to anybody who comes along. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
