<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">That's rather bold statement and indicates lack of knowledge on the<br>
subject . I would advise you to look at<br>
<a href="http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl-faq.html" target="_blank">http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl-faq.html</a> on GPL information.<br>
In fact proprietary applications can use/modify GPL software with no<br>
limitations or obligations towards authors. The only requirement is if<br>
such applications will be published/distributed it must be done under<br>
GPL license. If that's a problem - just ask authors to release a<br>
commercial version for such purpose.<br>
I think GPL is fair and easy to deal with.<br>
