Ryan is right in saying all that but to simplify: there is nothing in the license that stops you from selling code that contains BSD code as long as you don't remove the license and respect the copyright of code that you didn't write. Also, of course, you can't really "sell" the ownership of code you don't own (the simile widgets code), you can only pass it along with the same license we gave it to you with. But for the code you own, you can do whatever you want with it. Unlike the GPL, the BSD license won't tell you what to do with your own code. > deam31 wrote: >> Hi everyone, >> >> I'm part of a team who has been working on a project which include a >> timeline.
