[Audacity-devel] Draft letter to Luxuriousity.com

[Matt B. <mbr...@cs...>]

Here's a letter I would like to send to the owner of luxuriousity.com.
Any comments?

Mr. Gregg Collins:

I am one of the developers of the Audacity sound editor.  The Audacity
team recently found out that you are selling Audacity on CD.  We are
happy to have you distribute Audacity, but we have a few questions.

Our only real concern is the phrase "officially licensed distributor."
We believe this is confusing and implies that you are endorsed by the
Audacity project.  We ask that you change the wording of your page
to avoid this confusion.  "Licensed distributor" would be fine.

We'd also like to know whether you are distributing modified or
unmodified versions of Audacity.  As you know, Audacity is licensed
under the GNU GPL, and the distribution requirements are different if
the program is modified.

Please send your responses to the Audacity development team:
  <aud...@li...>

I welcome any comments you have as a distributor of Audacity, and I hope
you will work with the Audacity project to help us maintain and improve
the software.

Matt Brubeck
