<h2><a name="16"></a>2.10. Why was the GPL chosen as the licence for Harbour?<a name="WhyGPL"></a></h2>
|
|
<p>That's really a question best asked of each of the Harbour copyright
|
|
holders. A simple answer would be that the GPL is seen as one of the more
|
|
restrictive
|
|
<a href="harbour13.html#FreeSoftware">free software</a> licences and, for
|
|
that reason more than any other, it appeared to give the maximum amount of
|
|
freedom and at the same time the correct degree of control over use and
|
|
distribution.</p>
