licensing for freelance projects

Hi!

I understand that this may have been asked many many times before, but I just want to make sure that I have abide by the legal terms of using this wonderful editor tool.

Currently I am working on freelance projects for many clients. If I were to use this tool as it is (no amendments to the source code within) in my CMS projects and sell to my clients my CMS applications, will there be a cost involved?

If so, can advise how much?

what happens if in future you would decide to charge a small fee for downloading the tool for plug-and-use?

Thanks!

Re: licensing for freelance projects

Xinha is licenced under the HTMLArea licence, which is a variant of the usual BSD licence.

What this means is - you can do whatever you want with it, copy, sell, edit, feed to your dog...

Even if, somewhat impossibly, agreement was reached between all the developers to relicence and charge for Xinha, you could always fork from the BSD licence one (or just use as is). 

In short.  Go for it.
