Some more point i was to express : jQuery is a API or Library which eveyone can use, so there is no point in taking its code and making a proprietary API, so jQuery example we can not compare with a Software or Operating system which is MIT/BSD. One cannot hide source code of jQuery or Javascript, so it is different then the software which are shipped into binary format. Also, Developer-base (number of developers) who write and use jQuery is very large. For as long as the nature and purpose of jQuery concerned , I admit, MIT+GPL was most suitable license for jQuery. But If I were given the choice to make an application using jQuery, then I will always prefer GPL or AGPL... -- ┌─────────────────────────┐ │ Narendra Sisodiya │ http://narendrasisodiya.com └─────────────────────────┘ -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
