hi andy - of course i'd be very willing to know your point of view here, particularly from your firsthand experience.<br><br>i didn't even know or care a thing at all about licenses until about 2 years ago, and that was just from being employed to do the sound for an iphone app. <br>
with my own stuff i have come from a bit of an anarchist, feral techno background, where actually breaking copyright and ignoring laws was part and parcel of the scene.<br><br>all this shirt and tie business is quite foreign, but i just thought that if there was some way i could help make vanilla a little bit more 'vanilla-ish', it would be worth a try. at least worth a thread on this mailing list to see the various ins and outs of why there is currently one small section of the standard pd distribution that cannot be used in certain situations.<br>
<br>no disrespect to anyone is intended, but if some is somehow implied, even by sending an email, then yeah for sure, it is of course important information.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Oct 24, 2011 at 6:55 PM, Andy Farnell <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:padawan12@obiwannabe.co.uk">padawan12@obiwannabe.co.uk</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
</div>Sure. I can only tell you my own experience of that. Would you care to hear why<br>
it's bad? based on personal experience I'll explain what I think.<br>
If it can be made to come across okay and not seem overly pious or judgemental.<br>
But when you say "nice email", that's actually loaded with a whole bunch<br>
of invisible values and implications, some of which are really sticky.<br>
<br>
best,<br>
