You > are the one using the wrong term. The term in question is "source", not "source code". (And furthermore, the GPL, as is common for a legal document, defines several key terms that do not have a consistent, generally accepted meaning. The definitions have authority only within the scope of the document. Seeing such a definition is a pretty good indication that either the term does not have a broadly accepted definition or the document is relying some particular subtlety of that meaning.) -- Braden McDaniel e-mail: <braden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> <http://endoframe.com> Jabber: <braden@xxxxxxxxxx> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
