Namesys can double-lincense as they want. Anyway, I'd like some final clarity on this point, as Hans has said that all is GPL, totally, but the README doesn't confirm this yet. Just for the record, also, I would buy whatever closed-source stuff Namesys sells, if it works and if it doesn't cause me more trouble than it's worth, by, say, not giving free updates or requiring a certain kernel with certain configurations. Because it's the right thing to do. They have the right to sell it and they need the money. But still I think ransomware is the best way to go if in a pinch, there will always be a next feature that could be held as ransomware, after enough money has been gathered. -- mjt
