You people are fucking idiots.
Open Source DOES NOT MEAN GPLED CODE. NEITHER DOES IT MEEN FREEBSD LICENSED, OR
ANY PARTICULAR LICENSING. It means you get to look at the source code for free,
and thats all it means.
Licensing on top of that is a completely separate issue.
So stop fucking confusing 'open source' with 'gpl' like a bunch of morons.
