They said it was fine to redistribute ISOs of their distribution aslong as you didn't charge for it. If you did, you had to pay them a licensing fee.That's legally correct. S.u.S.E. uses *lots* of proprietary software on their distribution, amongst them their installer/configuration tools. If you use S.u.SW.E. Linux you'll find out many things are not where there are supposed to be... Red Hat release all their tools under the GPL. Guess which distribution I prefer... Best regards, Martin Stricker Lets limit the discussion to filesystems, not distribution bashing please. Steve |
