If you are the sole copyright owner, of course. You can distribute your work under any terms you wish. The terms under which you have previously distributed it are irrelevant. If you are not the sole copyright owner you must get the agreement of all the other owners. > Going beyond my specific problem, I guess I am confused by the concept of > "different": to what extent two pieces of code can be considered > different in order to be published with at least "similar" licenses (such > as the GPL / LGPL), also provided the author is the same? I am confused by your question. The fact that a work has been distributed under the GPL is no bar to its copyright owner distributing it under other terms. The license is a unilateral grant from you to others. It does not bind you in any way. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI USA _______________________________________________ Gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
