> I've spent all this time trying to figure out OOo's license I was sure > I finally had it. Looks like it is not your fault. The text on http://www.openoffice.org/license.html is misleading. (Almost) every file in the source code contains this: # The Contents of this file are made available subject to the terms of # either of the following licenses # # - GNU Lesser General Public License Version 2.1 # - Sun Industry Standards Source License Version 1.1 -> This means that you can use either GNU LGPL or SISSL. GNU LGPL itself contains this paragraph: 3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in these notices. Which means that you can also opt to change the license from GNU LGPL to GNU GPL. -- Pavel Janík The arrangement of menu bar items differs from most other GUI programs. We think that uniformity of look-and-feel is boring, and that Emacs' unique features require its unique menu-bar configuration. -- An unknown author in Emacs 20 Antinews --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
