If this is not the proper place could someone point me in the right direction.
I currently work on an open source project that uses the GPL for a license. The project is written in PHP and uses modules/pluggins. The project has an API that other developers can use to create these modules/pluggins so they work within the framework of the project. Questions and many comments have been raised as to how the modules/pluggins have to be licensed. Some feel that since they use the published API that they have to be GPL. Others feel that they can be licensed however the developer chooses be it a open source license or a "closed source" license.
Does anyone have opinions on which it true?
