various ways of using CMS

[Vedran Vucic]

hello,

yes, but I am not lawyer and I am not sure whether teh use that I described
may be in violation of the following part of GPL.
" ** You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source
code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this
License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of
the Program a copy of this License along with the Program."

Thanks,

vedran
