Depending upon exactly what those usage charges are for, the LGPL may not prohibit them. > The only permissible charges are those for providing you with a copy, The LGPL allows for one to charge for "support. Nor does require that the executable be sold/distributed for a nominal cost. This is how, and why some organizations have a per seat/per year charge for OOo. Now wondering if the eBay vendor with a "buy it now" price of US$5,000 for OOo is still distributing it from there. xan jonathon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
