We'd like to follow in the traditions of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. Ah, really, really just kidding. :) Comix has asked for an appropriately licensed sample library for Hydrogen. He and I have discussed both our interests. Neither of us wants to restrict anyone's right to produce and freely distribute derivitive products in the form of songs or audio tracks of whatever type. However, I don't have any motivation to allow for profit enterpizes to include the library with their for sale products. Well, not without written permission which very well might have to be purchased. I also can't see any reason to allow anyone to modify and redistribute the library without written permission. I have no reasons to restrict any other Open Source License project from including the unmodified library for distribution with their product. Please do hammer on these concerns. We definitely want to get the licensing right. Ultimately, my motivation is just an act of gratitude to this community.
