Re: [Gimp-user] Commercial use of GIMP



The main exception might be if a company provides a paid-subscription-only network service that communicates with a GIMP plugin released under AFERO license then said company would need to provide all subscribers with the source code that implements the paid service being used.  If the plugin is integrated tightly enough derivative work copyright rules come into play and the whole integrated system source may need to be released to satisfy the license.  AFERO is more restrictive than plain GPL.
