You should never have to pay anything, but you should be aware of the licensing restrictions if you make a "derivative work" (incorporate or change code) available under a license. For the GPL (in this case, but common to open-source licenses), this does not apply to usage, though, so it probably will not affect you. Neil -- Neil Blakey-Milner nbm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
