Don,

Thanks for that, your a saint. I'm probably being pedantic but when you say 'distribute our code as part of your package' you don't include calls to the OpenACS core like [ad_conn user_id] in this?

For most of our customers, we would do the installation. Presumably this is still ok provided the standard OACS install is performed then our package is installed on top.

Finally, I appreciate that this gpl question has been asked before, so if yours is the official view is there any chance of placing your statement somewhere prominent on openacs.org so thats its available for all to see.
