Hi,

I quote you from your page:

"Commercial entities engaged in FreeBSD-related enterprises are also
encouraged to contact us. "

I am a software writer, my website is http://www.shankar-software.org
I want to port my business software to other operating systems. Linux
seemed
the obvious first choice. After studying it for the past one month I am
completely
vexed by the gnu licenses covering their glibc libraries. It seems that if
I want
to port my software to linux, I have to write my own libc libraries (which
is a highly
time consuming effort) or not-object to giving my software under terms that
almost
strips me of all rights.

Use QT: http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt
If you buy a commercial license from trolltech you can do whatever you
want with your software, plus QT runs on every popular OS; Qt/Windows,
Qt/X11, and Qt/Mac. The KDE project uses QT.
