IMO that's not true, since most countries have automatic copyright laws for published content. ... So you can use anything in your closed source, but this doesn't prevent you from being sued, if your SW is famous and earns a lot of money. Or even if you earn nothing at all. My content is mine, there is no need for copyright notice. That's the reason, why it makes sense to add a license statement. A license make it clear, how my content should be reused. ... or not. have fun! mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
