You are bound by a license only if you want to carry out the act that would be otherwise forbidden (in this case by copyright law). For this reason, CC-SA and GPL can't dictate or control usage of a program that doesn't involve copying or modification, since usage is outside of copyright law. There needs to be no meeting of the minds nor exchange of consideration. Remedies are also different as I mentioned. We should probably take this off list for further discussion. _______________________________________________ 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
