(Have you actually tried to use it?)<br /><br />I must admit I don't understand the question (I'm working on finding out about the CC license and PD). Is there something about the GPL that stops you (or anyone else) from building a system and releasing it as PD? The source is less than a megabyte, and you could (as far as I know) just include a link to SourceForge where the source is? (e.g. http://ro-lf.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ro-lf/ROLF/rolf/?view=tar&pathrev=236). What would you like to include in it?<br /><br />tl;dr: Not no, just why?Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11289534660572407264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33414002.post-12381482732348612742012-08-26T01:48:26.457+02:002012-08-26T01:48:26.457+02:00Hi Simon!

(Hope you're not offended by my asking - I mean no offense). <br /><br />It's just that there are *so many* GPL GUI apps "out there", and the "public-domain world" could **really** do with a beautiful app like this! <br /><br />It would also make Rolf **really stand out** from the rest of the pack of apps like this. <br /><br />I'm not much of a coder myself, but I like to support PD software however I can (and I bought a book about a recently-released PD subset-of-C compiler <br />to show my support for the app author). <br /><br />Thanks for your time. <br />I imagine the answer will probably be "no", but just thought I'd ask.... :) <br />Keep up the great work!
