Must modifications be under the ABC-DFL? If so, it's non-free because to modify it you must agree that ABC can use your code in their proprietary stuff. Is this what you're getting at? Otherwise, it's free, afaict. > This is a question, of course, about the working of the > non-discrimination guideline. Not really -- it's about whether you have the right to modify. -- Jeremy Hankins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP fingerprint: 748F 4D16 538E 75D6 8333 9E10 D212 B5ED 37D0 0A03
