Re: [Reactor for CF] Licensing Question: Switing from LGPL 2.1 to Apache 2.0 to Facilitate Reactor's Inclusion in Commerical Products

[Teddy Payne]

Sean,
That did help on bringing to light an introduction to licensing.  There are probably plenty of developers that would like to create a product of their own and did not know which licensing that helps with companies adopting their work.

It would be an interesting case if a lawyer who is familiar with these types of licensing would generate a more detailed explanation that is written in common language. 

Licensing protects developers, but also allows them to promote themselves as well.  If the license is too strict for companies to adopt, then it would be hard for them to promote themselves.

There is definitely a gap in understanding between Business and Development that not many of us has approached.
