IAAL. If the lisp-gardeners end up needing legal advice, I can help out within reason. That being said, (and no, this isnt intended as legal advice), I would personally avoid putting serious work into a gui that depends on CLISP, even if the intention is to later make it portable. The GPL is unclear, and Bruno Haible's additions don't clarify things - if anything, they make it worse. The LLGPL isnt much better, but at least LTK has the apparent advantage of being working, portable, and documented. -cody _______________________________________________ Gardeners mailing list [email protected] http://www.lispniks.com/mailman/listinfo/gardeners
