(User Info | Send a Message) http://www.dogsempire.com | why would anything designed based on nuke be free?
======
We didn't tell exactly this... but, read the gnu/gpl
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html
Point 2b (shotrage here)
"2. You may .... forming a work based on the Program,
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that ... is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. "
So, you see, if you make something to include or work only with gnu/gpl product you must release you product on gnu/gpl terms, with all the restrictions.
is that is the case then any software that runs on linux should be free as well :P
======
Bad move. We think each one have to be responsible for his own actions, without references to "hey guys, look, some creators of software on linux do the same, so I don't care about is it right or wrong, I'll just do the same".
or anything else thats like so..
========
We feel you never seen fight around php license
http://www.php.net/license/
Read the answer on
"Q. Why is PHP 4 not dual-licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) like PHP 3 was? "
One of reason because php change license type from GPL to LGPL is easy... GPL didn't allow normal commercial trade of scripts. Because of GPL restrictions. So php license changed to lgpl.
what about all the hard work and hours that the creators put in making these things?
========
The one who care about it should think and spend a 30 minutes to read gnu/gpl license before spending hours in hard work :-)
ALso, do you think php-nuke were created in few minutes and there were no hard work and creators didn't spend hours to make php-nuke?
This is nature of FREEDOM and OPEN-SOURCE which gives gnu/gpl. :-P
P.S.: BTW, if you are really interesting in this topic - we offer you to open topic in forum. Comments is bad place for it:-) We can say much more on this topic, basically we feel you misunderstand our words a bit.
But read gnu/gpl license at first. |

(User Info | Send a Message) http://www.dogsempire.com | Let's make it more clear.
We never said that gnu/gpl decline to trade the scripts.
We just say that making work based on gnu/gpl scripts, or destined to work with gnu/gpl scripts, or be part of this is not the same as releasing commercial product. It have restrictions, and all restrictions are described in gnu/gpl. |
