MICROSOFT WINDOWS
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
I used to prohibit porting Remind to Microsoft Windows. However, this
|
|
may cause problems with the GPL, so I have removed that restriction.
|
|
|
|
Although I cannot prevent you from porting Remind to Windows, I appeal
|
|
to you not to do it. I am trying to encourage the growth of free
|
|
software, not proprietary software.
|
|
|
|
If you port Remind to Windows, I will not provide support or answers to
|
|
questions -- you're on your own. On the other hand, I will feel no guilt
|
|
in taking enhancements and merging them into the UNIX stream.
|

|
APPLE
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
I can't prevent you from using Remind on Apple's products, but I hope
|
|
you don't. Apple's corporate culture is the very antithesis of Free
|
|
Software. Rather than using Mac OS X, I encourage you to switch to
|
|
Linux or FreeBSD, two Free Software operating systems that are every
|
|
bit as capable as Mac OS X and which are unencumbered by Apple's
|
|
arbitrary restrictions.
|
|
|
|
And if you're looking to port Remind to other Apple products like the
|
|
iPhone or iPad, please don't. Those products enforce Apple's rigorous
|
|
controls much more stringently than Mac OS X on an Apple PC.
