[freenet-support] RE: Licence

Toad:
LOL. Aren't you copying the program by installing it?

There's a clear impression that the authors of the GPL consider that using
the software in the normal fashion does not constitute a breach of
copyright. Any opinion otherwise is clearly risible.

[freenet-support] Licence

2004-05-10 Thread Hibbs, Phil

I was a little amused to discover that the Windows installer requires me to
click I Agree to the GPL screen, despite the GPL stating specifically that
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed
it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the
Program or its derivative works.

This screen should have an option to continue without accepting the licence.

p.s. Is there anything I can do to instruct the mailing list to trim the sig
from this point onwards?
