A FAQ and an updated policy are both in the works. I don't know which of the two this change sits in. I'm passing on the suggestion that termination should always be one choice of remedy, per your much earlier mail. Of the things listed, I think that's the one which could still create a problem for the GPL, even in a service and directory listing context. A developer can't agree to be subject to Linden requests that might violate the license of that developer's software. _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
