So, if you're not actually shipping Racket with your framework, I don't think it really matters. And even if you are, as long as you make it possible to relink to my own copy of Racket, I think it's fine too (as Racket is under the GPL).
(At least, I hope it's fine, as I also have projects under the X11/MIT license (nanopass).) ~Leif Andersen On Wed, Mar 2, 2016 at 12:25 PM, Brian Adkins <lojicdot...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wednesday, March 2, 2016 at 12:17:55 AM UTC-5, Neil Van Dyke wrote: >> Brian Adkins wrote on 03/01/2016 11:31 PM: >> > Are there any particular license issues that I should be aware of in this >> > regard? >> >> I don't know.
