Terms of Use question

[bobm]

A client wants to bundle VDos in an installation package for clients to run an old DOS-based program. The clients would then have the choice of registering vDos or not.


Is this permissible under your terms of usage? 

[Jos]

Sure, your client is free to distribute and package/bundle vDos.

Hi,

I own a company that sells an old dos app that I wrote and would like to use vDos for unlimited distribution and installation/run rights with the app.
Does vDos allow this?
If so, I would like to pay for this right in a contract, even if only for one dollar. I simply want to protect my company's rights from any possible future change-of-terms and not have the rug pulled out from under the company, jeopardizing the company's operations.

Thank you.

[Jos]

There are virtually no terms of usage for vDos, besides those for modifying the sources.
I don’t think any could be imposed retrospectively for current/existing vDos versions.

If you want this expressed/confirmed in a legal contract, you would have to draw up one yourself. I’ll then have a close look at that and consider to sign it.

Hi Jos,

I have a one-liner contract ready for your consideration.
How would you like to receive it, by email?

Thank you,

Chas

You can send it by email: [e-mail] (change the "a" to an "o").

Is there an unlimited distribution license to avoid my clients having to pay you?
I have no idea on the number of future sales nor any idea of which clients would refuse to pay me more so I can pay you.
The system uses Btrieve 5.1 (assembler version) with PDS 7.1.
