Including the link http://www.friedrichromstedt.org/index.php?m=186 
would be helpful;
it took a couple clicks to find it.

Also, apologies if you did and I do not recall, but posting to the
SciPy list might hook you up with more interested people.  Be sure
to include a clear statement of the problem you are addressing.
(It is kind of buried in your introductory text.)

Cheers,

The docu on www.friedrichromstedt.org (see github link) is a bit

 The licenses are very different: BSD (and MIT) do not impose a viral
 copyleft.  This is why Python is not GPL, nor is NumPy or Matplotlib.
 People writing code under BSD-like licenses must carefully avoid viral
 infection from GPL'd code.

 Second, while John Hunter's views are not identical to mine

Nor mine wink.  I would say several things differently today -- here
is the version I wrote for the mpl docs:

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Embedding matplotlib in Tkinter Applications

2010-02-24 Thread Friedrich Romstedt
http://neuroimaging.scipy.org/site/doc/manual/html/faq/johns_bsd_pitch.html:
 Many people choose the GPL when releasing a package because it is the most 
 famous open source license, and did not consider issues such as those raised 
 here when choosing a license.

Alan, Thank you for your comment.  I think I will release diagram_cl
as my first MIT project :-) Hope that it finds some users then.  Also,
I consider switching to MIT license completely.  In fact, I like it
much more, it's shorter, more concise, and you can use my software ...

I'm not shure whether someone can release software under GPL
incorporating MIT licensed software?  Otherwise I would release under
dual license.

Friedrich

 Second, while John Hunter's views are not identical to mine, he
 makes a collection of important points about licensing here:
 http://neuroimaging.scipy.org/site/doc/manual/html/faq/johns_bsd_pitch.html
 I'm going to treat John's note as enough of an answer to your question
 unless you want more discussion.

 Naturally, since you wrote the code, you get to choose the license, and
 your choice is obviously none of my business.  Hopefully that goes
 without saying, but I'll say it to avoid misunderstanding.


  Did you notice that it is not an example but an independent standalone
  package?  I'm not shure about this because you always talk about
  example.  But maybe the summary is way too long, though ...

 Since you posted this on Matplotlib, I assumed you wanted people to be
 able to look at how you did it, not just use it.  I am not diminishing
 the application by saying it looks to be a nice example of how to embded
 Matplotlib in Tk.  If it were BSD-licensed I would probably get around
 to looking at your code.

Yes, GPL projects can use MIT or BSD code, but not vice-versa.

[Matplotlib-users] Embedding matplotlib in Tkinter Applications

2010-02-23 Thread Friedrich Romstedt
I would like to know whether the following project of mine:

http://www.friedrichromstedt.org/index.php?m=186

is useful or not, because I don't know.

I made an attempt to find something like what I tried some time ago,
but I failed.

It's definitely nice to have examples around, although I won't
look at anything that's not explicitly BSD (or MIT) licensed.
Somebody on the SciPy list (I'm forgetting at the moment)
was working on a related project, so you may want to post there.
