Can anyone explain me some points of GPL. What if I develop application that doesn't use any GPL/LGPL libraries. I want to make it available under GPL. The software package is fully functional and distributed in source codes. I offer the software with support and installation for some fee. There are optional add-ons: windows client developed with another free compiler and web administration tool developed in Perl (or PHP). I want to distribute those add-ons on commercial basis only. The main package contains some code, required for addons. Is that conforms to GPL (and Artistic license for Perl module)? What if there will be two versions of main package available: Lite (GPL, no code for addons) and Pro (commercial, addons and appropriate code in main package included)?? And now the same questions for BSD license. Thanks in advance. -- Yours sincerely, Andrew mailto:perl@ukrpost.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
