-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
just my two cents: In the same way it is possible to license a program as GPL2 and GPL3, it is also possible to license a program under LGPL and GPL. Then, if one wants to use a component, that is GPL only, one can simply drop the LGPL license from that point. So, if you want to use a copyleft license but have no prejudice about how strong the copyleft should be, you might triple license GPL2+/LGPL2+/MPL to cover the most widespread incompatible copyleft licenses and leave as many possibilities open as possible. (Incidentally, that is what LibreOffice does.) Cheers, Benjamin > For newly written code, I think LGPL is good. This approach has > some drawbacks as well.

It's the price we need to pay. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJSCRPnAAoJEK27BRz67lmpA4AP/A6M5ys0yAHxrgyqGDL9PNU1 dtgJK+MKoTJMljbYgF7Tlraw5d7ZkVEjsfhlYmCjN/f6geyekaGyPHwiPbKBYtYN lxnPPkktEcLuPIiEQ+AufeYrl1Jtp/8IeGi14Di9eFAzljXNO/jEjggYbjsd8tpH WAuTUJwa+osd0bVQJZ8NbBSXzxDHy2gx6B13UGsjIDg8iGi4GC6LJhtIiKJeeXUz p2fF1a3cLmMIQ3FO8mK3zbCIxcoftZYsO5It01RH7JV5sqRS4+yKfFqc7c/bWKHc 6XukSC04hNE9WB9q+NC6s2Hs4Xc99YNZK0HSkeuZ1yCIpJqpcSFKgqm1xt7eDqTo ml2BHenvlkTaEq547e6ggrj5VA0YK2zEsAolWltuDWu6joa6z8hcuIPp/CI49BR/ M3zb1sJiJN2ZjnqCPj/JwItTKAH/QM+F3GF6EGkYEDRvUa1Ot4bugKKf+OXoIgAt gxwHurD5ohp1ZNWTXORBzIKCyf8Hhm1t+GJr/qbC+nYafJOp4Tha/rBErItNhxPQ UbPz8ASk7K1amPkGJbPm2kMaHCf+LUrtB/aTAA9yCuA8RJWJrciol5woJ/tcgxEK xWkySOJadjrPEhP15H6yFvY95s7F1jXI7UZGhtsb17e4J74Z1UUKbLE6ydL+iJ4+ V6RLmJ36pgjMpS9aoT74 =kZ0K -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
