I wasn't implying anything other than what I said - that the software
carries a GNU/GPL license and I've never seen anything that stated an
annual fee to be associated with it - for any reason. If Jeff or anyone
cares to point out where these fees are mentioned, I would appreciate it
since I am using ipcop at a number of clients and have given up on
smoothwall for a number of reasons (and I note that smoothwall is
interested in support contracts and renumeration for extra features).

I was thinking that Jeff was confused and wanted him to elaborate on his
point.
