Licensing question
I created a web app that can be used in kiosks. My question is can I use proteus for this commercial app? Is this possible that I change it's default settings and set my web app url and redistribute it in my website (for commercial use)? Or I should pay for this?

Its explained here:
"Individual packages and system components - for e.g. Google Chrome, Adobe Flash, Citrix Receiver, wireless/GPU firmware - are provided with their own licenses. Every kiosk ISO downloaded from our site includes a copy of the GPL license which is placed in the "docs" folder inside the ISO. Other licenses are embedded in respective modules."
You may add your license to your custom module and you can redistribute the ISO.
Would be great if you could present the license to the users so they are aware of it. Its entirely up to you how you handle this.
Thanks
