I agree with the rest of the post, though. Having to comply with GPL is not a good argument to support including SimplyHTML sources - at least if I understand GPL correctly. There may be other arguments that support it: 1. ease of getting correct versions of all necessary sources for the release X of FreeMind 2. what if authors of SimplyHTML stop accepting contributions from FreeMind team However, those arguments support the view of "we might include" as opposed to "we must include, it's the law". I'm not sure about JRE - I don't know if it's already GPLed or not, but even if it is, it's double-licensed, and the "old" Java license allows for binary-only distribution. > And if SourceForge would disappear, so would FreeMind. So this is most > probably practically irrelevant argument. Another difference is that FreeMind+SimplyHTML would be easier to restore in this case - just take any developer's sandbox and put the sources online. You can't do the same thing with Debian.
