Citiram post na forumu jednog od autora nečega što počinje na "E":
Today, I received an interesting question from an Elxis user.
He asked me if "
Elxis will always be a free software?"
The short answer is YES!The long answer:
That kind of questions, shows one thing.
Most people (including me sometimes) do not read the license under which a software is released or they do not spend some time to learn about the license.
Elxis CMS is released under the
GNU/GPL license. That practically means that it will
always be a Free Open Source Software, no matter what!
Although, according to the GNU/GPL license, "
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price", Elxis CMS will
always be a "
free as a speech" and "
free as a beer" software.
To be honest, it was tempting to choose the "
free as a speech" instead of the "
free as a beer" explanation of the GNU/GPL, not only for us, but for a lot of people creating open source software out there.
The reasons we stayed and will stay on "
free as a speech" interpretation of the GNU/GPL, are the facts:
a) that we based Elxis on Mambo that was also released under GNU/GPL and no-one ever asked us money for,
b) and the competition from other FOSS CMSes.
Based on our experience, Open Source business is a service business. Not a product business.
So, we can give the "product" for FREE!Druže, ne znam da li si posetilac foruma Dizajn zona, ali mislim da bi tamo našao bolje sagovornike.
