I have always been confused by this too. The worry is that if we distribute anything EtherCAT with LinuxCNC then we obligate anyone who uses it to also seek a Bekhoff license. So that would make our distribution not-GPL I think that the Free Software Foundation has lawyers, but can’t recall if we asked them about this. Then you get into the murky shadows that allow Wine to exist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
