DOS ain't dead

Open source development prohibited with MASM ?!? (Announce)

While you might have some grounds on the fact that the wording may a little bit confusing, Steve Hutchesson has every right to make you do this.

In fact, I could write a license that states that you're only permitted to download my software while naked, and should you ever dress you must delete it.

Basically, the software is not free at all, but instead of paying for it, you must comply with the terms and conditions --- you're agreeing, when you download it, to all the terms of the license.

You can be sued for breaking copyright law if you're not in compliance.
