It is 100% GPL, and this means it is not necessarily compatible with some "open source" licenses. I haven't seen the IBM Public License, but this is something to consider. > glibc iconv/wchar : requires work to make it a standalone library > > libunicode : not 100% stable although quite mature I guess my first question would be whether these two groups have considered getting together. Is there a reason that the GNOME folks have decided to form a libunicode beyond what's in glibc? My second question is whether the glibc folks (or anyone else) intends on making the iconv/wchar code into a standalone library or if we'd have to do it ourselves. I'm just one vote, but I'd say that stability should be a secondary consideration at the moment--this will not make it into 3.2 (as much as I'd like it to), so there will be time for the library to stabilize. -Geoff ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the htdig3-dev mailing list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the single word "unsubscribe" in the SUBJECT of the message.
