That's why I stated they are "almost" similar cases... if the plug-in API argument is tested somewhere then of course it would make it a precedence. I hope someone could point such a precedence. Even in that case it would just apply in certain, common law country. Meanwhile, the world continues to be not black and white, but grey, outside Plone too: http://www.webmaster-source.com/2009/01/29/why-theyre-wrong-wordpress-plugins-shouldnt-have-to-be-gpl/ "Must be GPL" argument is strong, but it is only one interpretation. Though it would be wise to follow "GPL it" advice as I expect FSF to sue someone about this sooner or later. -Mikko _______________________________________________ Product-Developers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.plone.org/mailman/listinfo/product-developers
