Don't forget that the GPL is a DISTRIBUTION license, not a USE license. You can integrate any GPL'd (or LGPL'd) component into your commercial application so long as you don't distribute your commercial application in source form, binary redistribution is fine so long as you make note that your software contains GPL'd sources.
If in doubt, contact a lawyer. -Evan On 3/28/06, Nicolas Cannasse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > And just another question, how should we do a commercial licence to a > > company using our project under GPL? > > thanks to anyone who can clarify all those points :) > > Thomas > > http://sandy.media-box.net > > If a company want to use your code under the GPL, you can't prevent them > from doing so, as long as they respect the GPL restrictions.
