quotes really well and just shows the reply if you like. Rob probably
doesn't like it. It follows threads even if someone changes the header.

It's free of charge of course...

Is it REALLY free or is it just a free trial period that expires?

Free forever. Open source is the way to go for hobbyists. We are a very
patient bunch and we never charge for help.

Free software
Software under any one version of the GNU GPL license falls within a somewhat similar category and is referred to as free software. As stressed by the FSF (Free Software Foundation), free in this context goes beyond the "no payment" concept - it's about the freedom to use, share, study and modify a piece of software. For this to be possible, the source code for that software must be made freely available, which also applies to modified and shared (distributed) versions.

It's worth noting that the GPL clearly states that entities that modify or distribute original or derivate software may charge any amount of money for this service. However, this rarely happens and almost every product licensed under the GPL can be obtained without paying any kind of fee.

free software may be used at no cost for both personal and commercial purposes. However, if a person or company creates a derived software product by modifying the original source code and wishes to distribute the result, it must be done under the same free software terms, including the source code modifications.

Programs licensed under this model qualify for the Softpedia "100% Free" award.
