But you get *FULL* credit for your innovation under GNU. As per GNU you cant keep your innovation to yourself and you have to share it with the community from which the work was derived. If *your* innovation is based on hard work of several others then you are in fact exploiting *others* innovation not yours. So, GNU doesnt let you exploit others innovation but how come this locks down people ? Sherlock: Watson, what did Newton said ? Watson: What ? Sherlock: Newton said "I was able to do so much because I was standing on the shoulders of giants" ;-) regards VK -- The hidden harmony is better than the obvious!!
