The Opposite of Open Source
,----[ Quote ]
| Most open source, including most OSI defined open source, does indeed carry
| restrictions. Most open-source software comes with a license that specifies
| what you can do with it. That license may be "copy-left," requiring you to
| give back any modifications you make to the source code. The GNU General
| Public License (GPL) is an example. It may be very friendly in a commercial
| sense, allowing you to keep private (a.k.a., as your own property) your
| modifications. The very liberal (in the sense of nonrestrictive) BSD license
| has only a few, loose restrictions, but they are restrictions nonetheless.
| Any software licensed via the BSD license is someone's intellectual property.
| It is proprietary.
