Yeah, some bindings are released under certain licenses which actually stop the use of the library, i.e. a BSD licensed lib could have a GPL licensed Ada binding, meaning that binding couldn't be used in a commercial app. So yeah, it does matter and it should be specified. > Anyway, I welcome any input and/or suggestions regarding rewording > elements of the OpenALada web site and/or Ada source files to make this > clearer, better or legal for everyone. You could have a look to see if there are any differences between the Linux OpenAL and the Win32 OpenAL (this one actually being updated by Creative). Luke.
