So there is no way of releasing a close-source application written in Python?


Forget about reverse engineering or decompiling, things like EU Council Directive, Berne Convention , and legislation of individual countries are to be used and argued for handling what decompilation is allowed or not allowed. It does make a difference between looking at the codes when it is given and performing an act of decompilation to look at the codes. As mentioned in one of my postings, it may be analogous to the difference between you dropping some cash on the ground and I take it, and I performing the act of pickpocketing and take your money.

I am not advocating close source in any sense and I believe the choice of open or close source distribution is individual's and corporate's rights.
