What happens to your code? (Score:2)
Were your code contributions under GPL or Artistic License? If so, what do those licenses call for when the company is bought? Does NAI have to keep it open or re-write it if they want to close it, or ...?
Not trying to be difficult; I really don't know and I'm curious. There was an article on Slashdot about the purchase, but there wasn't a lot of informed or informative comments when I looked.
