Hardy brought at least one user here smiling smiley

& He aint the only that does not contribute but pretend that he does independent browser work and merely tempers k-meleons copyright text. Another inssists that he can tye our toolbars.cfg code and free icons to his copyrights...

Though I ssometimes think there might be some reasons in their live that makes these PPL do this I dispise the behaviour.

This is what happens when you give something open source.

Hi! Maybe we should call this kind of browser for renegade builds!!
Because i think that this is what InternetSpirit is all about.

Give credit where credit is due? Others would modify K-meleon according to how they use it and respect the developers....... We are just a small community here.

Anyone know if Internet Spirit's EULA is compatible with Gecko/K-Meleon GPL?

Surely not.

The first I have seen EULA licence, was in Windows 95 package, if my brain isn't too softened.

Do you think we have the same licence than Microsoft???

Let me guess - No not compatible in Spain smiling smiley

But You are lawyer and know for sure grinning smiley

His Eula contradicts K-Meleon's/GPL older rights "images...source code, incorporated into the Software Product) except as noted are owned by GLOBALISSA. The intellectual property right, copyright and all other rights in the Software Product shall remain with GLOBALISSA."

about: "Copyright by Contributors to the K-Meleon project under the GNU General Public License." Alternative concepts also exist. But all boils down to K-Meleon's devs own K-Meleon's source code, icons ... under the terms of the GPL.

If You mix new code with older GPL code the new code is "infected" by the GPL.
All changes/contributions or what others add - becomes K-Meleon/GPL code tongue sticking out smiley
You may only mix Your code with GPL code if You submit to the condition that it becomes GPL as well tongue sticking out smiley

p.s. It would not be worth while to take legal action(unless he has moneysmiling smiley).

There is an option. If we think many PPL look for the browser?
We can tell PPL Download here if You want the newest version of InternetSpirit web browser (which is a K-Meleon clone). All would have the same basic text and alter it a little; If many of us did this on home pages and here - Google and other engines would point to our downloads with these or similar words. But that would be only worth while to do if any number looked for the product grinning smiley

In internet it is often better to punish an unwanted thing with silence.

The end of Internet Spirit : soon

Yesterday evening, I have browsed a great number of links and when it has been possible I had posted or mailed a text asking for removing of Internet Spirit Browser page from their pages.

Quote
Post or mail sent
I am a member of the team of developers K-Meleon, which as you know is free software under the GPL.

This license allows everyone to freely use and modify freely as the software in question.

The sources of K-Meleon are of course available online, and many programmers grass, see, do not hesitate to change the software as they see fit. And all this is very good.

In the case of Internet Spirit, for everything would be better if the author did not violate the terms of the license.

Indeed, the author of the modified code is not required to seek permission from the author of the official version, do no less obliged to mention the origin of the product, provide sources of codes used, and keep the product changed under the same license.

But on all these points, there is flagrant violation of GPL.

I ask you therefore to remove this product from your pages, as we have already asked several sites, and for which the responses were positive.

Have a look for example to the about page found on Hardy's page and the About page in K-Meleon browser, and compare it. It's really a shame ...

h.t.t.p [:] /./.w.w.w [point] hardycreations [point] com [/] spirit [/] Credits [point] x.h.t.m.l

Thank you in advance to delete this robware of your pages.
