The loginserver is NOT GPL!

Yodason · #18 07-11-2002, 04:45 AM

yes it is you liar. THERE is a file in it that is GPL. ANY reported GPL violations will be taken seriously and reported to the FSF.

Ahhh..

The blessed sounds of silence...

Just give up with the GPL stuff. we dont want people handing out the loginserver source to everyone and thats final. GPL or no GPL. In fact, all files in the loginserver source are NOW excluded from the GPL. so this means we can distribute minilogin/public login, ect without giving out the source (only way its gonna happen) so everyone should be thankful its NOT under GPL.

Yoda, do you really think Stallman cares about someone violating GPL if it is not his code. lol Do you really think He want to see GPL used as a club in violation of the spirit of GPL. Which is to provide software at a reasonable $rate. He would not care that one file in what 5, 10 or 15 is GPL when the others are not. One file can not change the copy right on the others. Further a court battle in this arrena could get all the work of the FSF reversed in a flash. Juries and Judges are human and therefore unpredicatable. Stallman and the FSF would avoid that possibility. FSF is an advocate of a way of life not an enforcement agentcy. They have little powere to force anyone to do anything.
