Hi everybody, I'm writing here because I'm having a doubt on the GPL and I'd like to discuss it with you.
Scenario: a software house develops a web application based on GPL software. It doesn't sell the application to customers, it sells the access to the application, which is installed, run and is maintained on the software house's server. Question: can the users ask for the application's source code? I mean, in the GPL only the case of software distribution is covered. But in this case the software isn't distributed, it remains in the software house's servers. Selling access to an application is the same as distributing the application? Thank you for your answers. PS:I know it is not polite, but can you please CC: me? I did not subscribe the list. -- Non c'e' piu' forza nella normalita', c'e' solo monotonia.
