If you have one GPL-ish license designed for arcades, and another for toll booths, and another for web services, then you can't use code written for toll booths in a web service, and vice versa. That's the crux of the problem: these licenses, targetting a specific use, tend to make it impractical or impossible to use the code for a very different purpose. Having several of them for different purposes doesn't solve that problem. -- Glenn Maynard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
