No I would say that it cannot, since that sablevm developer would at
a minimum
have licensed the software under the apache license to apache, and
then apache
would have licensed that software to the end user under the apache
license, and
what that means is rather clear.
It's not clear at all to me from reading the ASL2, so let's spell it
out: Would such a hypothetical developer have a say in the license of
a VM using Harmony's modules or not? Cliff?
No.
I thought about this for a second more - the apache license is a license
from each contributor of their contribution to the licensee, so I
would guess that yes, any contributor could hypothetically have a say on
what a licensee does w/in the boundaries of their contribution.
I dunno. I am not a lawyer, and I'm really tired :)
