Active State can do what EVER they want it is their code.Of course. But I would be shocked in horror to see them use the GPL torelease it after n ammount of years. The GPL and variants might be finefor people who have an "agenda". But it is not a license that promotesfree use of its code. And since I think we just established that a workput out into the public under the BSDL, or public domain is *impossible*to close up or remove off the planet, there is no reason not to useeither. Unless of course like I said you have an agenda, or are notinterested in helping others with freely useable code.> I personally have no problems with Komodo being released on a> non- Open Source license.Me either. It's there work. Glad you think they they have the right to usetheir work as they see fit. :-)=============================================================================- -Chris Watson         (316) 326-3862 | FreeBSD Consultant, FreeBSD GeekWork:scanner at jurai.net | Open Systems Inc., Wellington, KansasHome:scanner at deceptively.shady.org |http://open-systems.net=============================================================================WINDOWS: "Where do you want to go today?"LINUX: "Where do you want to go tomorrow?"BSD: "Are you guys coming or what?"=============================================================================irc.openprojects.net #FreeBSD -Join the revolution!ICQ: 20016186-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (FreeBSD)Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6iD8DBQE61HDXoTcdKVapx58RAtYrAJ4m9Pk6rjaV5p4c8rPH8eOAbxta2QCeOkzdhYm4AspzXh0wJBMePOYUo70==if1Y-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
