What do you mean that's not one of the terms offered? If I say something is available under the terms of the GPL v2, what do you think that means? Legally null? If so, the FSF doesn't agree with you: http://www.fsf.org/licenses/info/GPLv2orLater.html They say that allows distribution under the GPLv2. -Brian -- Brian Sniffen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
