</div>It is my understanding that those who have already bought the paid<br>
version are entitled to the source code. You cannot simply undo the<br>
release and hope that others would forget it.<br>

</div></div><font color="#888888"> </font></blockquote><div>Actually, I'm not so sure that's the case. If you breach the terms of
the licence you loose the right to use and distribute the covered
software, I don't know how that applies to previous releases.<br>
<br>
It's good that your are acting on the violation however it would be
better if you instead chose to support the software that has given you
a free ride and you have so far been taking advantage of.<br>
<br>
A better solution to simply removing the software would be to actively
support the rdesktop project, open up the code changes you made and
give back to the community that provided you with a free leg up.<br>
