In fact, the majority of the web runs on open source software. Software licensed under the GPL, one of the most common Free Software licenses, in fact _must not_ be limited in use -- someone making GPL'd software _can't_ say that it can't be used commercially. As an end user, you really don't need to worry about the license much at all. It's only when you start modifying and redistributing (in source or binary form) that you need to pay attention. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
