Selling a plugin is fine: "we encourage people who redistribute free software to charge as much as they wish or can" http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.html > and not publish the plugin on pypi or plone.org? You only need to make the source code available to the buyer, though you are allowed to distribute it more widely. The buyer in turn also has the freedom to modify or distribute the software. Neither is obliged to distribute it; see Google and others who use GPL software and never make the code available. """ Thus, you should be free to redistribute copies, either with or without modifications, either gratis or charging a fee for distribution, to anyone anywhere. Being free to do these things means (among other things) that you do not have to ask or pay for permission to do so. You should also have the freedom to make modifications and use them privately in your own work or play, without even mentioning that they exist. If you do publish your changes, you should not be required to notify anyone in particular, or in any particular way.
