And keeping the source closed has guarateed us developers privacy and peace of mind, which is required for keeping a clear direction. So it's too early to talk about the licensing changes, though I'm open for suggestions. And x64 is a young platform. Who knows what the future will bring to us asmers :)

No. keeping the source closed is keeping the source closed. Period. The GPL never ment disorder and you don't need the GPL for introducing disorder. Also, a bit of intellectual honnesty would not hurt, here: It is completely clear that, when one "rewrites completely" a Project for porting it from 32 (GPL) to 64 (Anti-GPL), there must be another reason than the port itself. As a matter of fact: The Anti-ethical License. > So it's too early to talk about the licensing changes, though I'm > open > for suggestions. Excuse me, but even though i don't know who you are, i strongly suspect a liar, here. A license choice is all about ethic and nothing about time. If you have no ethical concerns, time will never buy you any, and there is absolutely nothing to be discussed about licensing: It is GPL or Anti-GPL. Period. > And x64 is a young platform.

You would do well to remember that not everyone subscribes to The Gospel According to Rene. Thank-you and have a wonderful day, Bodhi Rama
