Hi together,
I'm, together with Werner, the maintainer of FreeCAD.
Based on the long history of license struggle with OCTPL I do not think
they will change the license soon.
So I decided to go for GPL free for the 0.13 release of FreeCAD.
Fortunately Kongsberg, the company behind Coin3D, send a letter to all
its paying customer that they decided
to discontinue the commercial Version and plan to release the source
under BSD. This switch and
the removal of smaller libs (e.g. PyQt) will remove all GPL dependencies
of FreeCAD.
Unfortunately we have to wait for the Coin switch. But there is a
solution to this problem!
Jürgen
