I think this might be doable as a GPLv3 exception. Downstream can always revert back to pure GPL, but if they are permitted to make th work proprietary (in part or whole), it means they need the exception in-tact, otherwise they're violation GPL. Thus, I think that requirement can propagate, since no one downstream can revert to pure GPLv3 unless and until the grace period has expired. -- -- bkuhn _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list License-discuss@opensource.org http://projects.opensource.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss
