Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Precedence: bulk Hello. No war here, no complains, no problem, just a question: What is the difference between protecting my software with GPL license and my own copyright? For example, if I put a freeware copyright and let out the source code and all that, if I put a similar copyright to the GPL but from my own, what is the difference with this and the GPL one? GPL can help me more so nobody will not steal my code? So, GPL protects me more or not? I have no problem with the GPL at the moment. Ok, thanks for your answers! Goodbye.
