I understand WHY fedora is doing it and I don't care because I don't have to follow their lead. How is looking at the legal stuff on the openoffice site going to tell me what other packages Fedora has modified because of legal issues? I also have a copy of the LGPL and the GPL. I understand all the legal stuff. I just want to know what other packages are on the Fedora distro that are are missing original functionality simply because of legal issues. Several of you sure have got worked up over nothing. Every one has their opinion about the free stuff and the legal stuff. Every one of us are potential legal targets just because we using any version of Linux. We have all seen the articles about SCO, IBM and MS. These big companies don't have the resources to get every body so we don't have to make a big deal out of this legal stuff. Lets just live our lives and the Heck with these people that want to be miserable and try to get other people. I do understand why Fedora/RH do what they do. They are a big target. The rest of us aren't. -- If the word following begins with a vowel, the word you want is... to read the rest of this, go here http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/a.html
