2011-03-08 in GNU Savannah task #10974: "Submission of Slipstream". Hello. > I have written a lot of code until now for example but have not > released all of it as free software simply because I did not > consider it worthy of doing so. [...] - From http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html#PrivateSoftware: In general we do not believe it is wrong to develop a program and not release it. There are occasions when a program is so useful that withholding it from release is treating humanity badly. However, most programs are not that important, so not releasing them is not particularly harmful. Thus, there is no conflict between the development of private or custom software and the principles of the free software movement. However, we would be opposed if what you meant is you released such code but not as free software; I.e: as proprietary software. > both the Lua script and a png image are totally equivalent, > containing the same information If this PNG image is the source code form I think it's fine to include the script to extract it instead of the image itself. Excuse me, from your former message it wasn't clear to me whether this is the case. On the technical side: Have you considered the other way?. To include the PNG images and a script to make the Lua string. Thanks for your understanding. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREIAAYFAk12qPYACgkQZ4DA0TLic4h12ACdE60fMTngDOmQlPqSCFFhQBNU hrwAnj6+IWMDZVzMtkJCZUctNfNL0ElY =/oNT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?10974> _______________________________________________ Mensaje enviado vía/por Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
