Re-, I hope you didn't take my words as a raw piece of judgement. I just don't get all the read-between-the-lines of the GPL license, because I've only browsed it so far, not read carefully. So will you / are you compelled, under the GPL terms, to make the source code of your distro available, for even those who haven't bought a license, for example on a server, instead of bundled on the recorded medium? (I'm quite happy with Fedora Core 1 / Planet CCRMA, I'm not searching for a free sneak!) For my future experiments, what if I want my piece of software to be released opensource, but I don't want other people to make dirty money (all that's remaining after sales, packaging, shipment and survival expenses) out of it: which license should I choose? Say that this piece of software is to be considered as a third-party of hardware devices, and I want anyone but concurrent firms stealing that work to be happy with it! I'm on my last year of engineering degree, nearly the time to switch to the real world! I like the Neuros (http://open.neurosaudio.com/\) way, schematics and software made public; but I don't want to be crooked, as I have to make my living too!

Cheers,
