Just because you are writing GPLed code doesn't mean you are permanently linked to anyone you have supplied code to. You can send their emails straight to /dev/null. You don't have to give them any support, only the source code. And if you do give them support, the GPL doesn't limit what your hourly rates are: you are free to charge them one million dollars per hour, payable in advance in blocks of fifteen hours. If they don't like it, they can always fork the code, or find another person to support it, or simply stop being dicks. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
