Mono XSP License

First of all, I apologize for such a question, I browse the Internet and google searches, but there are so many different ideas. In the mailing list, I can really see that people are claiming to buy a Mono license for use in a commercial tool.

Can I use Mono XSP in a commercial tool? Does this allow licensing?

I do not know how to read legal documents. And trying to understand what exactly this means. In the XSP package, I have this COPYING file:

Copyright (c) 2002, 2003, 2004 Novell, Inc. and the individuals

listed in the ChangeLog entry.

My understanding: "Yes, I can use and modify it as soon as I leave a copy of this file with my distribution"

I'm right?
