You can download the Community version of LiveCode from our servers at
no cost. However, usage of the Community version of LiveCode binds you
to the terms of the GPL. Any *stackfiles* you create with LiveCode
Community must be distributed under the GPL (basically meaning that
anyone you give a stackfile to has the right to modify it and
redistribute the modified version as they see fit, as long as they also
abide by the GPL).
So whilst the Community edition is 'free' (as in beer), it also enforces
freedom on any code you write with it :)
