Hello, DG>read the front page of http://www.pcre.org/ and I noticed this in the DG>first paragraph: DG> DG> "The PCRE library is free, even for building commercial software." DG> DG>I'd like to point out that this is a misnomer. It implies that other DG>kind of free software is for non-commercial use only. Both BSD-derived DG>and copyleft (GPL-like) are available for commercial purposes. As such, DG>I suggest that the line be changed to read: DG> DG> "The PCRE library is free, even for building proprietary software."
PH>I have forwarded your message to [email protected], in case he doesn't PH>notice it here. I noticed it, and, while I didn't personally find the original statement confusing, I agree "proprietary" is more precise than "commercial," and have made the change as David suggested. Thanks for the feedback! Humbly, Andrew ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Andrew Ho Did gyre and gimble in the wabe.
