Does this mean that you can't have images in the same tarball as a GPL'd program in a tarfile? I don't think that's right. As far as I know, this only triggers when it's a derived work and/or sharing memory (speaking in the general case), not when it's distributed in the same zip file. > but java was always a border case because > it doesn't "link" as it was understood when the GPL2 was written (GPL3 > might even be another story). Even considering code in the same jarfile as "linked", I don't think you can link an image to code in the same way. Much love, Paul -- .''`.
