Hi,

The licence reads both Copyright and GNU. Mind if I double-check which licence it is?

Cheers, Phil

Hey Phil,

It's both :) Without going into the legal details, copyright is not mutually exclusive with GPL, we're in fact just using the boilerplate licence.

See http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html and scroll down to "How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs".

Have a nice day, dain

Facepalm. I've spent way too much time looking at licences recently.

Thanks. And kudos. Phil
