If that were remotely true then all of Mozilla and Apache and Eclipse and everything else in the free software world would be GPL'ed. If your position holds any water then show me that everything the Apache project produces is licensed under the GPL and only the GPL. If you can not do this then you are 100% wrong and should apologize to everyone on this list. $DEITY! Why do I get sucked into this crap so easily?!? Ok, this is really going to be my last time posting in this thread. No, really. I mean it. -- Joe Klemmer <klemmerj@xxxxxxxxxxx>
