This means that you don't have to pay a fee or sign a written agreement
to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software and its documentation
for any purpose. It doesn't say that you can't charge a fee for
distributing (although why anybody would pay you for something they can
download themselves for free I don't know).
hp A rule of thumb is - you can do anything you want with it (the PG software
inc. its source), except claim you wrote it, as long as you preserve the
original license-file(s). -- Andreas Joseph Krogh CTO / Partner - Visena AS
