richard... sure it would!! you can easily have gpl software, and then apply additional copyright/use terms. as long as your additional conditions don't obviate, or change the gpl, then you're fine... peace.. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Heyes [mailto:richardh@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2008 8:42 AM To: bruce Cc: 'jeffry s'; 'PHP General list' Subject: Re: selling gpl software? > if the author of the app has included terms saying that you can use the app, > provided that you keep the links/etc... then no, you can't violate the > terms... however, in reality, of course people do it all the time... Then it wouldn't be under the GPL. The GPL is itself a set of terms that grant you permission to use and redistribute the software.
