The point is the words that you use, not that you necessarily offer
anything radically different. Please correct me if I am wrong:
The new eu.ex is open source. I can modify it and distribute it as I
please (but it's a tad slow).
Assuming I don't modify execute.e, then if I purchase the source, it's
a simple thing to create a full-featured (bar legacy shrouded code
support), full speed interpreter (say myexw.exe).
I can send myexw.exe to you, and it will or will not appear in the
archive at your discretion.
Now, despite having purchased the source, I'm still at liberty to
distribute the PD bits I modified, but not myexw.exe (which is the
main change to the 2.5 license)
I am allowed to tell people where to buy the source.
I can supply instructions for recreating myexw.exe, or, if someone can
prove they have purchased the source, I can send them myexw.exe.
As I re-read the new source license, it dawns upon me that maybe this
is what you meant all along.
It all now seems a lot more reasonable to me.
You just want your $79 from every person in the chain, and then we can
do what we like. Sounds fair play to me.

Pete
