- People are starting to ask if SLS can be used for various and
- sundry purposes, such as redistribution or selling. Since I
- didn't state so in the README, let me clear the air here. Anybody
- can use SLS for anything they want (except restricting others
- of course). In short, the same rules that apply to the Linux
- kernel, apply to SLS. If you wish to sell it for $5,000.00
- (support extra) and can find someone to buy it, you are free
- to do so. If you wish to siphon it through to Bullitin (sp?)
- boards or Fidonet, by all means. After all, SLS is designed
- to save people the agonizing task of collecting and integrating
- a system themselves. And it is hoped it will catapult it
- to greater availability.
