You're right. We only distribute binaries built by GHC. So whatever doesn't make it into the runtime is not a problem for us at the moment. But as Herbert pointed out, it may not be so simple for everyone. There is GHC API ; there are EDSLs; etc. Herbert Valerio Riedel wrote: > I'm surprised there's still such resistance given the > ubiquity of Linux distributions made up of numerous > (L)GPLed components, IMHO it's kinda like tilting > at windmills... A few years ago, people would have said that using open source in industry at all was like tilting at windmills. I'm very happy that's not the case anymore. Some companies - including some big ones - use GPL'ed code and thumb their noses at the license. I hope that GHC will support use in industry by companies that do respect open source licenses. _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
