+ website
+ Added Harbour website (except art, docs and stat subdirs)
; TODO: configure automatic mechanism to extract site from
here and regularly updload to sf.net web area
; TODO: Clean HTML code, remove unused picture/files, avoid JS
Any takers?
; NOTE: Please make modifications to website code only in
SVN, then upload the content to web server manually.
IOW never update on web server directly.

<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>
