Well mjg59, while I must admit I rarely trusted your opinions, I never took you for a literal supporter of proprietary software. Make no mistake, software released under a license that does not permit distribution for a fee, or does not permit the use of it for ANY purpose, is called proprietary software. There is no other name for this. Software freedom is about giving rights to users, and optionally (in the case of copyleft) making sure that all users have those rights. The core of the idea is that developers should not have the right to dictate how and when the software may be used. Whether those developers/dictators are benevolent or not, does not matter in the slightest.
