They're not really. They're just interested in doing things the right way for Redhat users (which is fine - that's what they're paid for). > I'll just say we're more MIT-like, or > 2-clause BSD if the former causes confusion. Thanks! :) I've also spoken to a lawyer about this, and he concurred that our licence is more MIT-like in the way that its worded. It has roughly the same requirements as the simplified BSD though - but then so do a bunch of other OSI approved licences. As Tom says though, the effect this has on users is zero. The licence is still the same as its always been, regardless of what we say it is based on or looks like. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com PGDay.EU 2009 Conference: http://2009.pgday.eu/start -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
