Great question, Ivo. And it turns out, btrfs is already licensed to permit commercial use, integration into other products, and resale. The license of btrfs isn't stopping Apple or Microsoft from using btrfs. All licenses have terms (You should read the terms on some of Apple and Microsoft's software), but so long as they don't violate any terms, they are welcome to use all parts of the btrfs code for their corporation's profit, and their customer's benefit. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
