I don't know. I'm no open source expert, but I do know the words "open source" mean, plain and simply, "source that is 'open' -- i.e., available to the public". The words "open source" doesn't literally apply any concept of borrowing or reuse, but perhaps the words have grown additional (implied) meanings over time, just like so many other words/phrases in the English language. _______________________________________________ Project_owners mailing list [email protected] http://mozdev.org/mailman/listinfo/project_owners
