The > clause seems a bit wooly to me. There's no requirement that software be distributable for profit on its own (though some believe that there should be).

The requirement to state that the code has been modified is less awkward than what DFSG 4 allows, so I don't see any problem with it. -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED]
