Hi, I think there is a misunderstanding of the GPL here. Anyone is free to _sell_ a program released under the GPL whatever the price is. But the source code shall be provided for free (or for a fee covering the distribution) to anyone asking for it. I've not checked the details on their website, but if the sources for the whole thing are made available to their customers there's nothing wrong in regard to the GPL (the GPL implies some more restrictions but this is not the point we debate here). -- Alain _______________________________________________ Wormux-dev mailing list Wormux-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wormux-dev
