I want to use one rich text editor to one of my ASP page.I searched in internet and found that there are lot of open source items available like TinyMCE,FCK Editror,nice edit etc.. Can i put the same samples in my website.There is a GNU license associated with it.Can somebody interpret it for me to answer these questions

1 . Can i use it in my website without getting a permission from anyone ?

2 . Do i need maintain the same files always ? Can i make some customization and use it ? Customization is only the CSS changes its going to be.

3 . Do i need to put all the files as it is of the package which downloaded.because my download has samples which supports all languages. Do i need to put all those folders too
