One is that this is the easiest thing to do since the Linux kernelis licensed this way and our code interacts with other GPL'd codesufficiently to make any other Licensing scheme difficult. The other isthat for the purpose of cooperative development purposes we genuinely feelthat the GPL is in fact the most effective license format.<p>The purpose of the GPL is much like any standard copyright license, to<a name="i294">define what you can and cannot use the product for. However it differssubstantially from commercial licenses because instead of restricting youruse of the software its purpose is to <i>guarantee</i> your use of the software.<p>It in no way restricts the use of standard commercially licensed softwarewith Linux or other GPL'd code. Only the changes that you make to the codethat you ``borrowed'' from someone else that was licensed under the GPL mustbe made available to others under the same unrestricted rules defined by theGPL. Any product that simply uses or operates on top of Linux can belicensed under any commercial rules you chose.<p>There are many leading commercial software developers who are activelysupporting their commercial products on Linux for which you must purchase alicense, such as Motif from the OSF, Empress RDBMS from Empress Software,WordPerfect, and recently Applixware - the Office Suite from Applix Inc.and Red Hat Software.<a name="i295"> <a name="i296"> <a name="i297"> <a name="i298">You will find a complete copy of the GPL in section <a href="doc119.html#sG">G</a>.<a name="i299"><p><p><hr><a href="doc116.html"><img src=../icons/next.gif alt="Next"></a><a href="doc000.html"><img src=../icons/up.gif alt="Up"></a><a href="doc114.html"><img src=../icons/previous.gif alt="Previous"></a><a href="doc000.html"><img src=../icons/contents.gif alt="Contents"></a><a href="doc123.html"><img src=../icons/index.gif alt="Index"></a><hr></body></html>⌨️ 快捷键说明
