It is my opinion that GPLv3 goes a bit too far -- but I would dispute the label "aggressive developer" :-) | But I'm not sure -- if GCL is licensed under GPL3, does that mean that | anything built with or under it will also have to be licensed under | GPL3? (I guess that's why Camm is querying the Axiom list.) Indeed. That does have some implication for systems like the AXIOM family.

Having FSF owns copyright relieves from some legal paperwork and burdens. That is largely orthogonal to who actually does the development work. -- Gaby ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ open-axiom-devel mailing list open-axiom-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/open-axiom-devel
