----------------------------------------------------------------------- (G)illes-(E)ric (D)ESCAMPS Paris, le Wed 06 Aug 1997 a 10:32 -------------------------- Hi Alain, Although I agree with you on the fact that we need to make Alliance more simple to use (more a shrink-wrapped product) and then promote the binaries distribution upon the source, I'll disagree with you in the implementation of that. I'd rather see the binaries distributions available under : ftp://asim.lip6.fr/pub/alliance and the source version hidden behind a directory structure : ftp://asim.lip6.fr/pub/alliance/use/at/own/risks/sources/ I think that taking the sources of Alliance off the anonymous ftp server goes against the rules of copylefted (GNU) software. -- _ --------------------------------------- (_) | GED: Gilles-Eric DESCAMPS | _ _ ___ | Coul. 65-55, 2e étg, Bur. 228 | | | | | | ) | UPMC / LIP6 / ASIM / CNRS | | | | | | 6 ) | 4 pl Jussieu, 75252 PARIS cdx 5 | | | |_| | _) | | | |___ | | | Tel: +33 1 4427 5399 (fax 7280) | |_____| |_| | http://asim.lip6.fr/ |
