Re: [osdcmy] What about "closed core"?

[red1]

Hi Ghodmode, I wonder what you refer to is already meant so in GPLv3 as espoused by His Highness RMS. If i remembered my readings correctly, RMS was wary of the mischief doings of Steve Jobs in some apps probably ITunes where it used GNU-linked (hope RMS smiles on me) code which was taken from GPLv2 to sell apps, thus making money and locking in the users the freedom to improve on the app. which u know will lead to free beer, and of course free songs all over again. Anyway, i am against copyrighting. Would you settle for copyleft?

I've only recently become familiar with the term "open core".  I haven't heard the term "closed core"... can I copyright it? ... I can't wait to start suing people! :) Where does this type of software development fit into our community?
