"distribute" (improved wording): Distribution is what triggers the GPL. Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by the GPL.

| Jul 15, 2012 at 16:00 | comment | added | Shawn J. Goff | @PatkosCsaba Editing is encouraged on this site. If you believe it is better without it, you are free to change it. It is best if the answer contains the important relevant information - not when the information is distributed in the comments, as those are less frequently read. | |
| Jul 15, 2012 at 15:11 | comment | added | Patkos Csaba | @Shawn J. Goff: I would appreciate if you edit my answer you do not add things I did not wrote. I understand and I agree with editors fixing issues with posts (like typos, wrong formatting, etc), but I consider it would be much better if you comment to add the extra information instead of putting in my answer as I wrote it. Thanks. | |
