Blender Is GPL
BartV writes with a low-key snippet from the new blender.org: ""Today, Sunday oct 13, 2002, we've launched the Blender sources as GNU GPL to the Internet. Blender has become Free Software forever!" This should be a case study for other companies with software no longer profitable as payware; read some of our previous postings about Blender to follow the story from idea to release.
Guess the moderators here are all under 21 cause instead of finding the humor in that (Blender, Bacardi, drink to celebrate, knock, KNOCK MC FLY, anyone home!?) they were too busy smoking CRACK.
Now that Blender is GPLed, it will ahve the same effect on its market that GCC has had on the compiler market. It will destroy any incentive to innovate (who can compete with free?) and so the technology will stagnate. Sad.
After calming down, preliminary results may indicate, to me, these naggers are either Mac dopes or newbie users.
Don't you mean niggers?
Why not join together as a community and purchase something better like a mail/calendaring server that could compete with exchange?
What do you want? Something that spreads viruses faster than exchange?
That site seriously needs an "ABOUT" area. I visited the site, poked around and left with NO IDEA of what the software does and if I would want it. Oh well, whatever it is, it can't be THAT great.
