Illegal?

Combuster... i Read the license at that link and though it prohibits writing software for non-Microsoft Operating System's it does not prohibit it's use in Operating System Development. Which part of the license are you Refering to? -- Tyler 11:33, 23 July 2007 (CDT)

4. You cannot use the MASM32 Project to write software for Non-Microsoft Operating Systems. Because an operating system does not run on Windows, it's illegal. --Alboin

Yes... as i said in my original question, and i quote, "it prohibits writing software for non-Microsoft Operating System's". Using it to write an Operating System (at least the Kernel) is not using it to write software for a non-Microsoft Operating System. Clearly no Operating System, is not a Non-Microsoft Operating System, and therefore no problem. -- Tyler 19:53, 24 July 2007 (CDT)
