Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-2158:
----------------------------------------
Yes, I know. My only concern is that normally you can't have a software under
incompatible licences and [MPL and GPL are
incompatible|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/License_compatibility#GPL_compatibility].
We can ignore it as it's licenced under MPL. But if at a moment the authors
want to change, or are constrained to change because of this incompatibility,
and choice the GPL or LGPL we will be blocked.
Note though that the [Mozilla suite is licenced in the same
terms|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Public_License#Compatibility_with_GPL],
but it's not the same problem as us who must look from an ASL2 POV.
Anyway for the moment it's ok (since XUI was in the same situation ;o)
Note also that it's me we [asked Luan
O'Carrol|http://www.nabble.com/XUI-is-dead-td18160214.html#a18160214] to put
ARIA also under MPL, before it was only under GPL/LGPL. But they kept GPL/LPGL
and obviously gave up to try Apache incubator.

> ARIA should be our solution. There is also [Apache Pivot in

> But I would be easier to [migrate from XUI to ARIA|http://www.xoetrope.com/]

> [Licences|http://www.formaria.org/licensing] Weird becasue I guess MPL is
> incompatible with GPL, but anyway at least LGPL is ok for us.
> Note that we don't need to do that right now, just to keep it in mind...
