Hi Dirk, 1. I'm still not understanding why you refer to the header files? As I said, as far as I know Stallman and the FSF have not changed their view that header file inclusion does NOT produce a derivative work: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0301.1/0362.html 2. A standard understanding is that the GPL prohibits static linking from non-GPL code to GPL code, but permits dynamic linking. Are you saying that RPy is statically linked? Just to be clear, these are real questions, not attempts at debating points.
