Well, "yourself" is a loose term. If I were to redistribute MS |
7 |
Windows across 300 PCs for my employer I suspect some people would |

have something to say about that. Heck, the RIAA wants you to re-buy |
9 |
music if you want to load a song on an mp3 player that you already own |
10 |
on CD. |

However, for most packages in the tree the issue is going to be how |
13 |
"free" as in whatever you want the package to be. If we're going to |
14 |
have ACCEPT_LICENSE in the first place it seems like this is just a |
15 |
logical extension of it. |
