Display Tag 的Artistic license是否许可商业使用
我现在需要用到Display Tag,而且,事实上已经用了。今天看了下它的协议 Artistic license，我实在没有读懂。看了中文的翻译，也还是不很清楚。我只是想使用Display Tag于商业软件，是否可行？如果我还想修改下Display Tag的部分代码，那还能使用么？
从事软件开发行业，希望大众能够尊重版权，自己当然也要了。所以慎重地在这里讨论下。
请行家帮忙看下。谢谢。

另外，Javaeye关于开源协议的一篇讨论，供大家参考：

原文贴出来如下：（方便不想点开链接的朋友）
Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files
created through textual modification.
"Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been
modified, or has been modified in accordance with the wishes
of the Copyright Holder.
"Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or
copyrights for the package.
"You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing
this Package.
"Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the
basis of media cost, duplication charges, time of people involved,
and so on. (You will not be required to justify it to the
Copyright Holder, but only to the computing community at large
as a market that must bear the fee.)
"Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item
itself, though there may be fees involved in handling the item.
It also means that recipients of the item may redistribute it
under the same conditions they received it.
1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of the
Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided that you
duplicate all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers.
2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications
derived from the Public Domain or from the Copyright Holder. A Package
modified in such a way shall still be considered the Standard Version.

The End
1 楼 rainlife 2007-07-01 应该是可以的，但是在您的商业产品中予以注明，也是对display tag的一种尊重。 2 楼 海妖的夜 2007-07-01 可以的.第五条说明条件为你不得宣称本软件套件系你所拥有之产品. 3 楼 phpxer 2007-07-02 请教了一些朋友，都说是可以的。
谢谢大家。
