yeah, corel has to GPL any programs they *modified* from existing GPL programs, but they are not bound to GPL'n their file manager, package manager, etc. they purchased(I believe?) a commercial QT license from trolltech which pretty much rules out any chance of that stuff(including the install) ever becomming GPL (although it doesnt stop them from releasing the source) nate ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Vice President Network Operations http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- 6:17pm up 91 days, 5:52, 1 user, load average: 1.57, 1.59, 1.61
