-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I suspect hosting content under Apache Extras will be a problem. Moodle has moved away from other repositories, and now actively uses only GIT. Apache Extras does not support GIT.
I suggest hosting it on github.com like most of the other Moodle plugins, and maybe provide a link in Apache Extras. __Jim On 8/14/2012 2:40 PM, Kevan Miller wrote: > > On Aug 13, 2012, at 9:34 AM, Aaron Coburn wrote: > >> Thanks, Aahit, >> This confirms what I have read, namely that any Moodle plugin must be >> licensed under the GPL. >> >> IANAL, but it is pretty clear that the plugin depends entirely on the Moodle >> infrastructure, runs inside of the Moodle system and uses the Moodle address >> space -- it is, in effect, "linked" to Moodle and thus generally understood >> to be a "derivative work". >> >> As I understand it, this does not affect the licensing of the VCL, since the >> Moodle plugin and the VCL system only transfer data. >> >> The secondary question is whether the VCL project can properly distribute >> GPL code.
