The mozilla ldap library compilation isnt too bad.. though the configure scripts don't set up all of the include paths quite right.. either way, trying to compile against the red hat enterprise linux provided versions worked more or less.. but getting it installed proved to be a bit of a pain.
In any case.. I've gotten a little confused as to what is ok and what is not.. Mozilla LDAP is apparently LGPL.. which apparently the gatekeepers cannot commit code that links to it regardless of true license compatibility.. my existing code is OpenLDAP which is the OpenLDAP license and supposedly very close to the BSD license.. So it sounds like one of a few things needs to happen 1) The ability to commit code that links against LGPL needs to be evaluated (not even talking about including verbatim or even modified copies of LGPL licensed code- merely code that links against an LGPL library) 2) The OpenLDAP v2.8 license needs to be evaluated and determined to be compatible with the IPL - or at least whether or not code that links against the OpenLDAP libraries can be included. or 3) I need to write an IBM public license compatible ldap client- which I'm probably not going to be able to complete in this lifetime. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
