If the Program as you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term." This would seem to override any other terms included in the COPYING file, namely, this one: "This license can be used for any works that this license defines as "derived" or "combined" works that are strictly NON-COMMERCIAL. This license prohibits the use of any source or object code in works that are PROPRIETARY." IANAL, but it makes sense that if you say something in the beginning of a document, and then say "if I said that thing earlier you can ignore it", the later text stands. -- ╒═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ │Luke Faraone ╭Debian / Ubuntu Developer╮│ │http://luke.faraone.cc ╰Sugar Labs, Systems Admin╯│ │PGP: 5189 2A7D 16D0 49BB 046B DC77 9732 5DD8 F9FD D506 │ ╘═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛
