This is not something I've heard, and I see no reason to think it would ever be the case. I can see some difficulties with having GPL on some code and a derivative that someone has previously made not being able to update with that. Might force a fork. Maybe a variant of a Creative Commons licence is worth looking at. GPL is good though, and IANAL but it looks solid to me. -- Adrian Midgley Open Source software is better GP, Exeter, European Union http://www.defoam.net/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: InterSystems CACHE FREE OODBMS DOWNLOAD - A multidimensional database that combines robust object and relational technologies, making it a perfect match for Java, C++,COM, XML, ODBC and JDBC. www.intersystems.com/match8 _______________________________________________ Hardhats-members mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hardhats-members
