Some questions came up on the call about why the GPL version can't have the 
password protection code in it. It seems obvious to me why that would be the 
case, but maybe there's a complication I'm not seeing?

The value of password protecting a stack is that you can produce proprietary 
code that your customers can't just copy and paste into their own stacks. If 
the GPL version of LiveCode included the source code for how the protection 
scheme worked, that would completely devalue the feature, customers could 
easily rip-off the proprietary code of people who had paid for the commercial 
license.
