PearPC seeking funding to sue CherryOS - Engadget - www.engadget.com

PearPC seeks funding to sue CherryOS. I’m hoping they get it.

On another note, notice how someone at engadget doesn’t quite get the GPL yet?

PearPC’s code is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL), which does allow for free use of the code, but expressly forbids offering that codebase up for sale.

The GPL does allow one to sell it’s code. It however does require you make the source available when you do. That includes any changes you make to the code.
