Sheesh, now we are into semantics: From http://www.webster.com/dictionary/proprietary "something that is used, produced, or marketed under exclusive legal right of the inventor or maker" Note the word *exclusive*. > proprietary software is commercial... Not always. If you distribute "free of charge" application without source than you have *exclusive* control. Such application is proprietary even if you do it as a personal hobby with no commercial interest. As such, it is not allowed to be linked against GPL code. > ...and GPL can be also commercial.
