[NTLUG:Discuss] to 'sell' or not to sell opensource

The GPL does allow you to sell gpl'd software*. See:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#DoesTheGPLAllowMoney

Of course GPL is not the only open source license but, I am making an
assumption that it is the one you would be dealing with most of the time.

I simply charge for installation and configuration time of the software - not
for the software itself.
