Seems I didnt quote enough context for you, (& as my original reply bounced, of course by now no one can be expected to remember it). Yes: people can sell what they write or modify or copy. No: they can't bundle it into the FreeBSD src/ tree with unusually restrictive copyright requiring royalty payments _Unless_ FreeBSD agrees (I'm not sure what Gary C. intended WRT this ) That's why I asked: >> ... or have I misunderstood you ? > On _TOP_ of this, he's offering 25% of his profits. I call that _damn_ > generous. Agreed, v. generous, but IMO no payment is worth sacrificing the src/ tree to royalties. Let's await Gary Clark's clarification of what he wants to do, Gary, care to clarify your proposal ? Thanks. Julian S
