As I understand ActiveState's License Agreement, the results of your usage of their tools (PerlDevKit) belong to you. as for the "unethical" part, I concider this borderline, where the main concern is in the (paid) work time spent on Perlmonks, opposed to doing real work... ;-)	[reply]

I have solved lots of work problems by reading through Perlmonks - I do agree that this is mirky water im stepping in, but I believe there is a balance between work and grokking through techincal websites.

Huh?!?! I've bought ActiveState's Dev Kit. You suggesting I can't use it to answer a question on Perl Monks? And if I did, it would be unethical of me to use software that I've purchased with my own, hard-earnt money? Boy, I know that some people have a lax attitude to respecting intellectual property these days, but I think this is going a bit too far the other way!	[reply]

When I use any wizard in the visual studio - does that mean that the output code from that wizard belongs to M$? If I use a commercial templating solution - does the processed output of that template belong to the company that provided the template library? If I use an sql client to create a database and then use that same interface to dump my sql - does that interface own the sql or the sql dump?	[reply]
