Right, it depends on the license under which the code was released.

If the code is in the public domain, anything goes. Otherwise, check the license.

Using the other's code to make it work for you should be done
with caution. It's been known to catch up in time some big
companies... And make some small ones rich or poor...

And small companies are easier to attack to set precedents in the least...

Get the author's permission or look for public domain code...

If it's non commercial like the bit101 scripts I dropped in the list a few
days ago, then I guess it's ok and to the honor and benefit of the author if
you give him credit... He might appreciate it and get you more!

Hi Paul,

Dear Rev Programmers,

Anyone know the legal mumble-jumble on taking a open VB source code
than you didn't write and converting it to Rev, and
distributing. Is
that legal or not?

I am no lawyer, but i would say yes, it's legal. At least i would do it ;-)
