Hello Tony,
Excerpt from Tony Mechelynck: -- <snip> -- > The Vim license goes far back in the history of Vim, and I think Bram > put a lot of thought (over time) into making it exactly what he wanted. > OTOH the GPL is one of a short list of popular licenses and there may > have been requests to allow licensing Vim under "some well-known > license". Too lax a license (by Bram's standards) would definitely not > have suited him as it would have "forced his hand" into things he wasn't > ready to allow. The Vim license is even more relaxed then GPL. > OTOH, too strict a license is acceptable as an > alternative but not as the only possibility. > > > Best regards, > Tony. -- Regards, Thilo 4096R/0xC70B1A8F 721B 1BA0 095C 1ABA 3FC6 7C18 89A4 A2A0 C70B 1A8F -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
