What are the rules for using gpl, lgpl, bsd software in the enterprise?

Question

Are there any restrictions on the use of licensed software lgpl, gpl, bsd in a commercial enterprise if the tools / software are used only as part of internal processes and are not integrated or included in any software / product sold.

i.e. if we used open source media conversion software to convert someones voicemail from .mov to .mp3 and made changes to open source software, we would need to post the changes, even if they were only used internally, so that remain compatible with licenses?

Answer 1

As long as you are not using the AGPL software , you basically do not need to worry about redistribution offers.

For the GPL, your requirements apply to the source or make it available to those to whom you distribute the binary copy. If you use internal software, you are usually explicit.
