What that page appears to say is that if you build a web application with ExtJS and distribute it for others to use then it must be under the GPL v3 or a similar "open source" license. If you build an application and put it on your own site, i.e. just *use* it you wouldn't incur such obligation as far as I can see - since they're not using the Affero GPL. I don't see where they consider use on a Web page as "distribution". However, if that was their intention they should probably have used the Affero GPL instead. br Carsten -- http://www.modspil.dk _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
