The GCC Steering Committee, along with the Free Software Foundation and the Software Freedom Law Center, is pleased to announce the release of a new GCC Runtime Library Exception.
This license exception has been developed to allow various GCC libraries to upgrade to GPLv3. It will also enable the development of a plugin framework for GCC. The text of the exception is available at: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gcc-exception.html We have also published a rationale document and FAQ to help users understand the exception better. It is avaliable at: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gcc-exception-faq.html Happy Hacking! David Edelsohn GCC Steering Committee
