Hello Tony and Ben,
Excerpt from Ben Fritz: -- <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. >> > > Right, but one that is more relaxed than the Vim license, like the MIT > license for example, would not work. Thanks for the clarification. Sorry for the noise. -- Regards, Thilo 4096R/0xC70B1A8F 721B 1BA0 095C 1ABA 3FC6 7C18 89A4 A2A0 C70B 1A8F -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
