As I understand GPL3, as long as you provide all the source code to build the application then you are fine. In which case we could not _legally_ be in compliance with that licensing. Which is why I was asking. I think we can be open source, but I think the version of license that we are using is incorrect.
I'll look into the LGPL ... thanks for that info.

As far as GPL goes, I'm pretty sure that GPL is incompatible with Valve's license, and it's therefore not possible to make a GPL server plugin. You can make an LGPL plugin though, no problem, as LGPL permits dynamic linking. -- Jorge "Vino" Rodriguez _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
