fysika ypoxreousai na exeis diabasei an asxoleisai me afta, alla anarwtiemai
an kserei kaneis tipota.

  Sta grhgora (DIABASE to idio to GPL, ta parakatw einai apo mnhmhs kai OXI
swsta apo nomikhs plevras, logw parafrashs):

  * Free software den einai to "dwrean" software, alla to "elefthero"

  * To GPL software PREPEI na perilambanei source code h na sou dinei th
dynatothta na to katebaseis.

  * Mporeis na poulhseis GPL software, arkei na sebesai to license agreement
