Default Re: Does SEIV run on XP????

If you write your own software designed to be used on Linux, you do not have to make it open sourced. Look at Quake 3 for an example. You think they are going to release the source code for that game? Not likely. If you write software that consists primarily of open source code but with a few modifications, that is when you have to release it with GPL/GNU. But you can just as well write closed source software designed to run on Linux as you can on Windows. It is not as if you have the source code to use on Windows when writing software for it.
