Hi,
As far as I know:
- I'm allowed to modify it?
* YES
- I'm allowed to distribute it WITH modifications applied?
* YES - that's called forking
- I'm allowed to distribute it with modifications applied, and NOT supply the original source? (still keeping that 'OpenVZ' label on it, though)
* I'm not sure, probably yes, with a link and the designation of the original source
- I'm allowed to distribute it with modifications applied, not supply the original source AND charge for it? [this one won't really matter, but it's for another project, just breaking it all down in to one, really Razz]
* I think NO, You can charge for the support/service, but You can NOT for a GPL software (Or fork of a GPL one), which You HAVE TO provide the source. (Also see Asus WL500g Router's Linux Firmware : It's based on Linux, so Asus were forced to release it's source code.)
I hope I didn't make a mistake and this helps You.
