    This is why professional, for-profit developers should run away from anything that isn't at least LGPL'd like the plauge. Even then, just to be sure, I might have corporate legal review the license doc before I used something.

    I enjoy being paid for my work.

    Who the hell is going to hire a lawyer to get "teh SOURCE!" of some frikkin PS2 game anyway. Get a life.
