Actually, this is most of the time not even an issue. You can easily reuse v3+ code in a 2+ application; the resulting binary will be 3+. No issues. The only problem is if you use v2-only code in the same program (which we should have very little of) and similar by now rare cases. > Given a blank sheet I'd pick GPL 3 every time as it > prevents DRM lock-in and patent abuse. +1 _______________________________________________ kde-community mailing list kde-community@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-community
