John M. thanks for the in-depth explanation, really helps to put it in those terms. I understand. Richard, its the whole Toolbox issue with needing a custom CEF build to enable video sites to work correctly. I think I will launch the community version first and then figure it out from there.

Tom, the original author of the software can release his or her software in dual or multiple licences. This does not affect previous GPL releases. So I could make something available under a commercial and a GPL licence. If someone wanted it for free nothing stops them from using the GPL versi

Copyright owner can relicense at will. That is why there are contributor agreements that transfer copyright to the project in many cases. Someone else can’t take GPL code and change the license. Thanks, Brian On Sep 28, 2018, 2:59 PM -0500, Tom Glod via use-livecode , wrote: > Hey Malte, > > Th
