Ok sorry allow me to clarify.
wxWidgets was ruled out by the client in the contract wording.
When I asked why they said "We cannot re-license it", which is fine
they want a library that they can set the licensing terms on pretty
much soup to nuts.
Umm, no one can do this for any license typically. The library doesn't
belong to them.
The IBM public license allows it if memory serves. IANAL, but at my last
job, we re-released a library that was released to use under the IBM
public license under our own commercial license. The only requirement
was attribution to the original author. I seem to remember reading the
license to make sure of it, and feeling assured that that was indeed the
case.
Strange, but true.
