I am absolutely sure of the above. However IANAL. So take a legal opinion from two lawyers together a copyright expert and a contract expert if you plan on tangling legally with RH or Suse or whoever. If you are planning a bussiness by placing restrictions on the recipient, perish the thought.
Final word. If the original code is gpld, you can copy and distribute the code and the binary to your hearts content - contract or no contract.
Thank you. great insights.
a) As far as placing restrictions on the recipients.. Well, not that I would, but if I could, wouldnt that be so cool?
b) Not planning to tangle with Suse or RH, but am wondering, whether I need to "buy" 40 licences or subscriptions to RHEL or SuSe when I could buy 1 and load on all. How would it affect my working. Would I be breaking the law in any form and can anyone kick my butt for it.
Since an "activation" is required, would i be able to start it at all?
Not that RHI has shown any interest in making me a paid customer despite a couple of requests. I guess business must already be super for them which in turn means Open Source is already quite happening on a commercial scale. go RH.
