Wolfgang's credibility, as far as programming is concerned, as never been under question. <snip> > But anyway, you can resort to calling me any name you wish. That's > not important to me.

Period. > I find that to be a really odd statement for two reasons. First, Public Domain software (no longer copyrighted or not copyrighted) gives one all the rights of GPL software and a bunch more. So, how can Public Domain software which isn't GPL'd be Anti-GPL? Second, the GPL requires that you forfit your copyrights for any changes or modifications to the original author who, under the GPL, is the sole copyright possessor (again, this includes contributions by others) and has the right to close the source at any time he/she wishes. This means that one individual can release a small snippet of code, have hundreds of others turn it into a professional quality application free of charge, and then take it private, i.e., no longer release the code under the GPL - since it's the original copyright holder who possesses all the legal rights to distribution and licensing, have a commercial programming house polish it up a bit, and sell it commercially for a profit. You need to go reread the GPL licensing FAQ. Make sure you "read between the lines" this time. Rod Pemberton

PD existed since the earlier days of the computers and never were any thread for the Crime&Co. If you fail to understand why and how, the GPL is a war for freedom against the Crime&Co, it would be utterly useless for me to try to explain anything. Betov. < http://rosasm.org >
