If you are the copyright owner, you always have the final word on what
you do with your stuff. The license is for users of your product. This
means you can arrange another license for paying people if you want,
this is what is done when dual-licensing.
If you reuse things of other people however, this must be in consent
with those licenses.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
2010/2/1 Richard Lyman richard.ly...@gmail.com:
I have a few questions I'm hoping to get some feedback on.
= Releasing source code =
If I understand the EPL 1.0 correctly, under section 3(b) part IV, I'm
forced to release my source code - right?
I _cannot_ just release an AOT JAR under the EPL 1.0 and keep the source
code under a different licence - right?
Or does that only apply to everyone _other_ that the initial Contributor?
= Other's commercial profit =
Under 2(a) and 2(b) I've pretty much given each Recipient full patent and
copyright permissions. There's nothing available to me if I want to profit
from it in the future. I have to change the license on some future release,
and even then they still would have the full permissions I had granted in
some past release - right?
Under 2(c), even though I've given the permissions I can, the Recipient
still might not be able to distribute my Contribution if my Contribution
infringes some third party patent for which the Recipient is required to
secure any rights that might be necessary. It seems odd that there could
still be some loophole... some way that I could benefit from the third-party
patent licensing - right?
This has been a fairly painful process for me, thanks for any helpful
feedback.
-Rich

Communication is essential. So we need decent tools when communication
is lacking, when language capability is hard to acquire...
