Actually i'm facing a similar dilemma. I want to make my source available but not open Source. ( i don't like the openSource idea nor licensing for various reasons ) What are the licenses available for "closed source" products ? For now i am just selling my source at a very high price ( people have the choice of buying a .lib or the source ) , but that's kind of problematic for people who want to upgrade or modidy the product to suit their needs. ( i have no objection against that, i just don't want it to go wild , nor for people to feel like it's free because it's not ) thank you pat.
