Open Source: Understanding the Core Principals

Anonymous Reader writes “Earlier today, I stumbled upon an article that was filled with reader comments stating that the sellers of open source software are to be dismissed as scam artists. Those in this crowd that actually understand the legal bindings of the individual license(s) and definition of open source generally pointed out that they feel such sales are unethical – just not illegal. Fine. But what kills me are these misguided individuals that claim that laws are being broken should said software be sold to the end user.”
