If you have questions on the subject please contact us. Hmm.... From what I understand of GPL you can't put additional restrictions to it. It's either GPL ot not. The only thing you can do as a copyright holder is to dual-licence it, like MySQL for instance, where you have one free GPL version with its licensing rules or the same code bought as a commercial license that you can use free of GPL restrictions. AFAIKT from what Lars reports, LinuxSampler is violating GPL. Regards, Peder
