I have just read this:

"These unfortunate comments seem to stem from a common misunderstanding, namely that software freedom requires that software be made available without cost. Such is not true and there is nothing in the GNU GPL which prevents charging for software. In fact the GNU website states that charging money for software licensed under the GPL is allowed <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#DoesTheGPLAllowMoney>. This is why software freedom advocates often quip that they are in favour of "free as in freedom, not free as in beer"."

[ http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20130826#qa ]

Does that mean that developers producing standalones with LC Community are permitted
to charge for their software?

AND . . . does that mean that those who purchase software made using LC Community cannot redistribute
is "as is" but must first modify some of the code?
