I4B is distributed under the BSD License, I4L is distributed under the stricter GPL (GNU Public License). AFAIK the latter was the reason for Hellmuth not to use any I4L-sources in I4B, it was written completely from scratch. > I think that when it comes to > network code and hardware drivers there could be a common base > for all the free UNIXes. The same applies here, although it's rather the way that commercial vendors rather use BSD code, since the license allows them to use it without providing the sourcecode (which the GPL does not). Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong with any of the above :). -- bye, logix <Shabby> Sleep is an abstinence syndrome wich occurs due to lack of caffein.
