So "commercial" in this case means anything that is not GPL'ed. You can of course make your software GPL'ed and still include a note that says "If you like send $x to y". However, you must provide source; you can't produce only binaries. -- Fergus Henderson | "I have always known that the pursuit WWW: | of excellence is a lethal habit" PGP: finger fjh@128.250.37.3 | -- the last words of T.
