- Subject: DevGuide3.0 Libs-Who owns the source?
- Lines: 25
-
- We are currently developping *lots* of software with devguide3.0, most of
- which can not be distributed on the net as sources because it needs
- the devguide3.0-libraries to compile, in particular the DRAG'n'DROP and
- filebox-codes, which are provided in source together with devguide
- but protected by SUN, as I believed.
-
- However, a quick search showed that some public software packages include
- the devguide-source in their sources and distribute it freely. I wouldn't
- be surprised if SUN supports this as xview needs lots of support if it is
- really supposed to be able to compete with the widget sets...
-
- Can the source be distributed freely?
- If yes, why is it not a part of xview3?
