I was talking about software. I mean what the hell I need a source code if I
need to buy a MS Windows license and a licese to Developer Studio? It is just
too much _no freee_.
That is what Nadav said in his second point.
How ever, my point of view says that even programming is a sort of art: You
choose which aspect your app will take, and how the code will be written
(more spaces, Uppercase, LowerCase AND i aM NoT EvEn TaLkInG about a
mixeture) and in all those cases the resulkt will be compiled to the same
machine code. Making loops instead of recursy is not always just because it
is better, but because the programmer likes it. It is the way he expresses
himself. Is there any license written that describes something like this?
