Andre, you are mistaking what you think is morally right with what is legal. Read the GPL - www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html - your position is not tenable!

It's all legal and doesn't break the GPL license - what Artio or Kanga did. Artio were allowed to take existing GPL code and use it to build their own product, and they decided to insert ads. That's all fine. And Kanga were allowed to take their product and modify it and release that, no probs there either. Welcome to the wonderful world of open-source :D
Seriously, if it wasn't all free to begin with (and allowing anyone to modify and re-release), then this component probably wouldn't even exist!

And personally, I don't want ads for some other companies on my site unless I specifically choose to place them there.<br><br>Post edited by: benatwork, at: 2007/05/25 01:18
