I hate to reiterate over whats already been said, but just in case you've forgotten, here you go: > That library is not a big one, it's not the most powerful lib on > earth. Just a data type lib.

The rest of the stack is BSD and anything from the E project (at least core stuff) could be taken by a company and worked on internally. Suddenly there are pieces which require separate licensing and contribution requirements. Feels wrong. > Does that mean that you also don't link against any lgpl (or other > licence that is not like BSD or MIT) lib that exist ? No, it doesn't. Those aren't EFL projects. We have them marked as a dependency and I don't code for them. I may submit bugs and such but they aren't a big part of my work. I want to be able to take my work at some point and make modifications that aren't open if it comes to that. Why should I have to give up my ability to take my code and do what I want with it? (And, I know I can just re-license my code but in general it's been worked on my many, many, people so I can't just take it that way) dan Also, there have been several emails about the need to keep the licensing consistent within the project (from Kim, Luchezar, Andreas, etc). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
