Hi,
ComputerBild has in every issue one or two CDs. In the past I used to buy an issue if I needed a big chunk of software (servicepacks, archiver, browser, etc)
For me it is ok if the ship inkscape with their magazine.
Could we eventually wrap a stable version with the current multilanguage installer ? To be more handy for the non english speeking germans ;-) Also the licence agreement mentions online-download. I think they should link to the inkscape projectpage. Instead of having an old version on their homepage.
HTH,
Adib. ---

Not sure that's blowing them off, exactly. We don't really have the rights to make any license arrangements BUT the GPL.
Actually we have, but only if we achieve the agreement of _all_ authors of the code, which is not realistic.
Well, by "we", I meant the current Inkscape developers, not all authors. I would be surprised if e.g. Lauris would be very cooperative.
Not that I would blame him in this case; if COMPUTERBILD want to distribute Inkscape, the GPL is good enough.
Probably this is new territory for them though; they're likely used to negotiating special licensing arrangements for packaging proprietary demos on their CDs, and their procedures are probably oriented towards that. Here, they may require a bit of hand-holding from us.
