I'm really curious about how the GPL works with regard to hardware. If I use your (GPL) PCI code to describe my hardware, isn't that more like using The Gimp to create a picture than linking a program against libreadline? I think this sounds like a really cool way for you to raise the money you need to get this project off the ground (and I really want that to happen), but be sure that it will work the way you expect it to. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
