Uli: I think these three should all be allowed.
>Alain : (4) Or will we impose a not-for-profit clause ?
Uli: If we do that, we can drop OpenCard right now. Computer programs are
tools. If you can only use a brush to create paintings only you can look
at, but everybody else doesn't see your drawings, what's the use? And after
all, all stacks are original work, which means they should be allowed to
create products they sell commercially. -- I'm not sure whether GNU have a
clause that requires distributors to ship along the original source? This
would be something we could do, probably.
