If I develop software, and am willing to give it gratis to non profit organizations (most net.persons) but would like to maintain all rights and controls (and make money if companies wish to use my software for $$$$), how can I do this? Having net.friends sign liscences seems a bit extreme, but having my work used by others to make $$$ without compensation is a poor type of thanks, as well. Ideas? craig
