Bearing in mind your statement about The Wrath Of The Lawyers(tm) I'm not expecting you to necessarily answer, but I have a question about the scenarios you outlined above: From what you say it appears the assembly exception is only required because we can't release everything under the GPLv3, so the assembly exception allows us to mix non-GPLv3 code with GPLv3 code. When the projects (both existing and yet-to-be-born) to remove all the closed binaries and non-GPLv3 code are complete, is there anything to stop someone at that point ripping out both the assembly exception and the CDDL licensed and producing an incompatibly-licensed fork, with all the problems that entails?
I dont see how that makes the situation any different, they could still implement the closed source parts and release them using gplv3 only if we dual license. Same outcome nacho _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
