Hey Howard! My problem is with this part:
(quoting from the url you gave) # "must share source of redistributed version" -- Does this license forbid the recipient of the source code from modifying it and shipping his modified version to a third party without giving them the source? IMHO LGPL is a good license for an app server like jboss, but not a good license for a framework, because working with a framework includes changing parts of it, and I dont want to be forced to submit all my changes back, and give all my customers the sourcecode of tapestry, where most of them dont even know what tapestry is. If they knew they would just code my app themselves, because working with tapestry is sooo easy :)) Peace chris > -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- > Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet: Montag, 24.

I chose the license to maximise the distribution of Tapestry; I sincerely hope that some day, Tapestry will be bundled with major application servers like JBoss, WebLogic, etc. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://tapestry.sf.net > Hi Howard et al! > > I was looking at tapestry as core of a project, and I am a bit worried > about the lgpl license.
