Yes, I do know that EU 3.0 is open source, but the 2.5 source code was a commercial product with strong license restrictions. After 3.0, I asked Rob to open the bilingual EU 2.5 too - I did not have the spare time to develop the bilingual EU 3.0 by myself, so why not to allow this work to someone who wants to work without reinventing of all that stuff? That time Rob prefered to wait me. But this waiting gets too long. > I'm not sure using any licensed material with restrictions worse > than GPL would be possible or desirable. I may be wrong there though. There are the official developers of the Open source EU now, why not to open just for them just that 2.5 bilingual interpreter? Rob? > Could you elaborate on how the bug shows up on Linux? Ok, I'll try to find that interpreter on my old reserved HDD and run it to make the screen-shots on Linux Mandrake 10.0. > Inasmuch as this doesn't infringe on any NDA of course. What is NDA? Sorry, I do not know this abbreviation. Regards, Igor Kachan kinz at peterlink.ru
