Actually, yes, you do. From section 6 of LGPL 2.1: "You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License." and "If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among them...." >> I am trying my best but no luck yet...*who should we contact for the >> license information?* > > An lawyer :) > From my Debian education I have got very good knowledges about open > source licenses (and what is not free / and forbidden), but I can not > take over the job of a lawyer. There is no single point of contact regarding the copyright for all of the code in MLT. The framework, core module, and some other modules are all copyright Ushodaya Enterprises Limited, but we no longer have a direct contact with them. Other modules have a variety of copyrights. And then there are the various dependencies that need consideration. So, a lawyer is definitely good advice if you need to make something proprietary. >> >> Thank You >> Murthy >> >> On Mon, Aug 27, 2012 at 11:59 PM, Patrick Matthäi <[email protected] >> <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: >> >> Most parts of mlt are LGPL, so there is no problem in general, but you >> still should study the license. >> >> There are also GPL parts (for both, LGPL and GPL, please notice that >> there are different version of both with different clauses), if you >> enable/use them you can use them *for yourself* also e.g. in any binary >> form and linking against software with any other license (if the license >> of the other software allows it), but you are only allowed to distribute >> it (distributing as in PaaS, SaaS, e.g. or selling/providing the >> software) if you also open and publish all other parts of the (linked) >> software to the customers/people which are able to get your result. >> >> This is a *realy* short summary about the license, so you *have to* >> study the license and to get sure that you will be confirm with it with >> your commercial business. >> >> Am 27.08.2012 20:14, schrieb Murthy Avanithsa: >> > I have a question regarding licence . >> > >> > Can I use this great editing framework (MLT) in a commercial >> application. >> > >> > Thank you. >> > >> > -- >> > Regards, >> > Murthy. >> > >> > >> > >> > >> >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> > Live Security Virtual Conference >> > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and >> > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond. >> Discussions >> > will include endpoint security, mobile security and the latest in >> malware >> > threats. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfrnl04242012/114/50122263/ >> > >> > >> > >> > _______________________________________________ >> > Mlt-devel mailing list >> > [email protected] >> <mailto:[email protected]> >> > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mlt-devel >> >> >> -- >> /* >> Mit freundlichem Gruß / With kind regards, >> Patrick Matthäi >> GNU/Linux Debian Developer >> >> Blog: http://www.linux-dev.org/ >> E-Mail: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >> [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >> */ >> >> >> >> >> -- >> Regards, >> Murthy. >> > > > -- > /* > Mit freundlichem Gruß / With kind regards, > Patrick Matthäi > GNU/Linux Debian Developer > > Blog: http://www.linux-dev.org/ > E-Mail: [email protected] > [email protected] > */ > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Live Security Virtual Conference > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
