Hi Team

Thank you for your reply. I do not intend to use hard work of community and
earn profit on it. I do not intend to do  any changes or modifications in
existing R source code and build software over it. I am just using R as
language to develop my own work, the same way people use Java or python.

I just got confused with the licensing , as I thought i can't even use R as
a language to write code. But that's not the case right? The problem arises
only if I try to do modification in existing source code and then try to
convert it into proprietary.

I am sorry , it all came out in wrong way.I didn't intended to hurt anyones
sentiment.

I totally love the community and it's work so far. And hope someday , I'll
be have enough knowledge, so that I can  give back to community.

Regards
Anamika
