Problem
Blender is a free application for creating 3D computer graphics and animations.
Here's an example of a modeling project:
Blender is released under the GNU General Public License, an open source license. Here is their website's description of that license:
This license grants people a number of freedoms:You are free to use Blender, for any purposeYou are free to distribute BlenderYou can study how Blender works and change itYou can distribute changed versions of BlenderThe GPL strictly aims at protecting these freedoms, requiring everyone to share their modifications when they also share the software in public.
What is an implication of Blender's open source license?
