I know you don't really understand the GPL but perhaps reading the officlal GNU/GPL site will clear things up.

The developers who told you they are unhappy are simply trying to hoodwink you. They're trying to have their cake and eat it too. They are releasing commercial software and promoting it as being GPL but when someone actually exercises their rights under the GPL they seem to want to cry about it.

In some cases it might be that they just don't fully understand the ramifications of GPL licensing or perhaps they just want to benefit from the promotion of their product as being GPL while never intending to honor the license. In any case, they are the ones in the wrong because legally GPL software once released must remain GPL in the form in which it was released.

A typical example of a derivative work received for registration in the Copyright Office is one that is primarily a new work but incorporates some previously published material. This previously published material makes the work a derivative work under the copyright law. To be copyrightable, a derivative work must be different enough from the original to be regarded as a "new work" or must contain a substantial amount of new material. Making minor changes or additions of little substance to a preexisting work will not qualify the work as a new version for copyright purposes.

Yes? and this would be argued in court with a lawyer not an internet troll.

It is significantly different.

This is a very hot subject that is never discussed on this forum.

Developers are forced to use the License and it's expected that people operate in an ethical manner... But they don't.. Greedy world we live in...

It is true that if you develop a derivative work of Wordpress or any GPL software for that matter that you should inherit the license. However Wordpress does provide some scope to use the Serendipity or Habari license if a developer chooses.

Nobody is holding a gun to the head of developers, they can elect not to release derivative works of Wordpress which is GNU/GPL licensed itself or they can choose an alternative license.

Some developers of some Wordpress plugins which are protected proprietary works achieve this by separating the Wordpress derivative logic from the proprietary logic and then release the derivative logic under GPL and the proprietary logic under their own license.

It's good to see where your morals are at tho.

Not that I ever see having a reason to do business with you? Blog post writer?

He has no real business interest, his only way to get attention is by being a troll on an adult related forum.

It makes him feel important that he can go and tell his buddies about all the inside info he learns and the new sites he hears about.. He may even tell people he "Works in adult."

Unfortunately his envy, jealousy and negativity will forever keep him from doing anything productive in life let alone in a gold mine like Adult.

1 month old nickname talks like he's been here for years. Likely been trolled off the site and banned before. Not even welcome here as himself.

Sad....

How old are you Shoebox? older than 30? Not a good look bro. :1orglaugh

If we take a legal standpoint, it's legal to copy , give away and resell GPL licensed software, it says so on the GPL official website and within the text of the license. Moreso, it's a condition of the license that those rights be enshrined within it.

What was the name you used before you had to open a new account for some reason?

CandyFlip? ShoeBox? HomeFry ? Are you kidding me?

Irrelevant Trolls.

Gimme-Website called Fris out based on the ethics of the people on this forum. She was 100 percent right in doing so. Fris is taking advantage of a loop-hole to profit from other people's work.

Taking something that someone sells and giving it away for free or at a lower price is NOT OK here.

Fris has admitted that the people who create the content he is selling/giving away with his services DO NOT want him doing so.

Fris has been posting other people's Wordpress work and indirectly taking credit for it for years.

But everyone is cool and "appreciates" it because he's helping them out. :thumbsup

Anyone supporting Fris while working in adult is a hypocrite.

Why has this been completely blown out?

Trolls, Fake Nicks, Envious Competition, Women Haters, etc...

You also have morons like VDBucks who are only reading what the trolls are posting and not following both sides of the drama. Completely clueless.

What's ironic is the trolls are now trying to call Gimme-Website a "thief" for "stealing" a 8bit graphic of Green Mushroom but what Fris is doing is A-OK. :thumbsup Not the same at all.

Talk about hidden agendas.

Gimme-Website you acted completely reasonable while being harassed and attacked by idiots. Unfortunately this is the internet and idiots are trolls and trolls must be completely ignored. It's a personality defect to either be a troll or respond to trolls. It's hard to overcome but it is possible.

Why is it always the designers? Competition and they tend to be attention whores.

I'd like to respond to every bullshit comment made towards Gimme-Website in the last week but i'll leave it at that.

Congrats to the winnnarrs. :1orglaugh
