[edit] MINERVA (mod) images

You have added several images to the article about MINERVA (mod) and tagged them as free software. While Minerva is free of charge (free as in beer), it is not licensed under a free license (free as in freedom). (See the readme.txt in \Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\metastasis, which says "Maps and writing Copyright (c) Adam Foster 2007" and Free software for the difference between proprietary and free software.) Valve Corporation's textures are copyrighted as well, making this a derivative work. I have listed the images

• Image:MIN.met.033.jpg
• Image:MIN.met.032.jpg
• Image:MIN.met.031.jpg
• Image:MIN.met.030.jpg
• Image:MIN.met.027.jpg

Sorry, I didn't know that was copyrighted, since the game was free. I would reply at your talk page, but there is no link to there.

It is an easy mistake to make. The difference has more to do with copying and modification than it does with price. Actually, the GNU General Public License allows you to sell free software. The "free" in this cas refers to "free to modify and redistrubute", not necessarily "free of charge." --Phirazo 17:54, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
