Lee Mac Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Ah - I see what you are saying about the restrictions on what you can do with code covered by the GPL - I can see how connotations of a 'virus' come about (code covered by GPL used in other programs which must then be covered by the GPL...). Thanks lol @ flying cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Se7en Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 No problem. Now, please keep in mind that the whole license issue isn't as simple as i may have made it seem either but this is all really just for conversations sake anyways. If Jane released fooxx under the BSD and Bob wanted to release fooxx2.0 under the GPL he would have to get permission from Jane if he wants to change the licensing of Jane's code or just release his portion under the GPL and keep her's under the BSD. ...Basically, in this case the license issue has more to do with the developer's then the users because to the user its all free code anyways but you understand my point. My reasoning: This forum shouldn't really have to worry about the dealings of developers and shouldn't take any stance on "owing" or "copyrighting" its members code. Leave that up to the developers of the code; if i wanted to re-license your code, I should talk to you not CADTutor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
