Heh. Don't ask me for authoritive details. Talk to Cliff Schmidt (our VP legal). Depending on your interpretation of the LGPL and the Apache License, code under these licenses can be used together without the AL code falling under the LGPL license. The ASF recently switched interpretation to one where this mixing and matching is possible for java code, too. However, the ASF doesn't like to ship software for which parts of that software which are needed for it to function are under terms more restrictive than the AL (which is the case when you have a non-optional LGPL dependency). So we have a policy in development (I don't think its ratified yet) to somewhat constrain such a thing. - LSD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
