Hi all, Just a quick note to say that following the discussion on https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano/issues/926, I would strongly encourage all Capistrano v3 users whose organisations may see any issue in using GPLed software as part of their deployment stack to seek independent legal advice regarding the GPL.
SSHkit is GPL, and Capistrano uses it. Lee's IP lawyers have a very different interpretation of the license of the resulting work to that of the IP specialists we have engaged, and in my personal experience, the majority of people discussing OSS licenses on the net interpret the GPL to mean that any combined work must be GPLed, based primarily on the following license. If the latter interpretation is correct then Capistrano v3 is GPLed, even though its own code is MIT as per the license file. This may or may not be an issue for you depending on your situation.
