In Reply to this Note From: <Joe Buck> [text deleted] >For example, here at Berkeley we produce a lot of freely redistributable >code. The conditions on that code do not correspond to the conditions >on the GPL, because of pressure from the people who fund the research. >This falls into several categories: > >1. Some granting agencies want an audit of how many people are using >code produced under their sponsorship. > >2. Commercial companies who fund us would like to be able to use our >code to make proprietary products, evil software hoarders that they are. > >3. Some government agencies would like to deny CAD technology to some >countries, since it seems some of them are still fighting the Cold War. > Which of these conditions is the cause for the confusing clauses about advertising?
