This strikes me as some people who hope to freeload off open-source
efforts, without having actually learned anything about how the
community works. Did you catch this:
: GT.M is currently available on the IBM RS/6000 AIX, Compaq Alpha/AXP Tru64
: UNIX and Open VMS, HP Series 9000 HP-UX, Sun SPARC Solaris and x86
: GNU/Linux. The release of GT.M as open source freeware applies only
: to the x86 GNU/Linux platform.
Aside from pissing off those of us who use one of those other platforms
;-), there's the question of whether Sanchez actually thinks that people
are not going to be able to figure out how to port the code to non-x86-
Linux platforms... or does their "open source" license say you're not
allowed to do that?
