Hi. I think the Reciprocal Public Licence
(http://www.opensource.org/licenses/rpl.php) requires sharing of modified
code, regardless of redistribution. See 6.1 (Availability of source code)
and 1.2 (Definition of 'Deploy'). Also see the FSF's comments on this
licence at http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/license-list.html.
Am not sure about the second restriction though.

Chris Yoo
