Minor correction, Narcis: you **can** sell GPLed software no problem. What the GPL restricts is the terms under which you distribute the software (either by selling it or giving it away: You must distribute it under the same terms it was shared with you. I.e. you must provide access to the source code and give the same rights that we granted to you.
