Re: [Vegastrike-devel] Free Game Alliance

Under a GPL license you can still sell your product provided the source is included. The project has already done this as far as I understand it though I don't know for how much. Mostly it depends on the type of license used by the libraries and as I have read few of those, the ones I have read require that their particular library must remain external from the main binary.

I don't think the license would allow us to do that.
