- Who's stealing what?

Before De Raadt compains about GPL boys "stealing" code, he better review his license. Don't proprietary companies "steal" BSD code when they make proprietary programs from BSD code? If that's allowed by the license, then why are the GPL people to be blamed for doing re-licensing the changes under another license?
If anyone or anything should be blamed, it should be the permissive terms of the license. Other open source licenses don't allow code to be "stolen" in the same way. If De Raadt doesn't like he way BSD-licensed code is being re-licensed, then he should use a different license with stricter terms. - Posted by: mannyamador Posted on: 09/28/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
