It is considered a derived product then, and yes GPL does apply in that case, indeed. But why would you want to embed brltty code in your code? BrlAPI allows to drive braille devices from outside BRLTTY, precisely for that purpose: you run an unmodified BRLTTY, run your own program alongside in a separate process and make it use BrlAPI to connect to it. Since BrlAPI is *LGPL, you can do that without having to disclose the source of the program. As Nicolas said, please explain what you want to achieve, and I'm sure we will find a solution that doesn't make you have to release your source code :) Samuel _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
