Why is a price tag proprietary

Posted by Anonymous User at 2005-03-18 04:15 PM

I always wonder about people posting about proprietary software...do they actually write software themselves?

I looked at the license and it is very fair. If you want to inspect, evaluate or test the software, there is no charge. What is so proprietary about software with full source included, with a license which allows you to inspect, change and redistribute that software?

By your meaning I live in a proprietary house, drive a proprietary car and drink proprietary beer... Think free as in freedom, not free beer.

Jahia 5.0 Community Edition

In order to answer to some critizisms, Jahia released an open source compliant version of its leading Unified Web Platform which include nearly all the key features (CMS, Portal, DMS, Search, Cache, Workflow, User Management,...). Only a few enterprise wide modules are now released under a "sustainable" license (exactly the same license excepted you need to pay some royalties in order to use it for Commercial purposes... or to contribute something back to the project).
