Hi, We have taken up an awful lot of bandwidth on both the jboss developer and user lists discussing these licensing issues. I would like to propose that general "philosophy" discussions be moved to a different list, and that specific questions by a contributor to or a distributor of jboss be sent to the board at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Of course, I recognize that this suggestion may be met with criticism. The jboss-dev and jboss-user mailing lists are unmoderated, and if anyone disagrees with me they may--of course--continue to post license discussions to these lists. There is no need to flame me; please just ignore me. :-) However, I have taken the liberty of starting an open-subscription egroups mailing list, called jbosslicense. You can subscribe at jbosslicense- [EMAIL PROTECTED] I suspect that announcements of license changes and the like would continue to be made on jboss-dev and jboss- user. Those who feel that the "broader jboss community" needs to be warned about the implications of the jboss license can probably rest assured that the issue has gotten a good airing, and that interested participants will move over to jbosslicense with them. This is not meant to demean the importance of this licensing discussion. People who intend to distribute jboss naturally will have a keen interest, and probably appreciate the comments from all points of view. This is just a suggestion that seems to me to make sense, considering the continuing high volume of traffic related to this discussion. -Dan O'Connor On 5 Nov 00, at 12:53, Peter Donald wrote: > At 07:16 4/11/00 -0600, you wrote: > > > >> At 06:46 4/11/00 -0600, you wrote: > >> > >> Rickard has already pointed it out.
