The GPL and its promoters rely on this in order to maximize the GPL's negative impact on legitimate commercial developers. Rather than turning this into a long-winded discussion, I invite those who are interested in these issues to READ the GPL and also Stallman's own writings. "The GNU Manifesto," "Why Software Should Not Have Owners," and "Confusing Words You Might Wish to Avoid," all available at http://www.gnu.org, express Stallman's dogma and malicious intent very clearly. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
