Hi All,
Can I distribute a binary (
http://www.bioengineering-research.com/vtk/vtkit.htm ), for free, that
includes the vtkPatented library- so long as the kitware copyright appears
along with it? I know users had to compile the patented library before- a
binary couldn't be download from kitware (this may have changed).
Could someone use VTKit to make a starpack (commercial) application that
didn't use the vtkPatented library but had the library linked. Or should
there be a non-vtkPatented version of VTKit aswell?
I presume if someone wanted to use the patented classes in VTKit, they could
apply for a license from the appropiate source?
Thanks,
Goodwin
