You're right Yann, Cyberduck is still GNU GPL, but I feel that when I am
translating to Spanish strings of Cyberduck I'm at the same time
translating (and helping) Mountain Duck wich is propietary source. If this
would be true (perhaps it isn't) perhaps I would like to receive a free
licence of Mountain Duck as well, althought I would feel confortable asking
for it.

I feel also unconfortable with the translation platform Transifex, and for
the same reasons. There you traslate an opensource application, and at the
same time you are donating for free your translations to other propietary
apllications, because theese are paying the owners of Transifex for the
service you are giving them for free. So, you are working for free for
people wich earn money selling your translations. Do you really know that?
Dou you really agree or like?

Does anybody know if I am understanding something wrongly?
