Re: change MIT license to GPL?
Nate, You should stick to coding and leave the licensing questions to the people who actually know what they are talking about.

Re: change MIT license to GPL?
hello again. I opened this post because I am making an application that I have to release as open source (I'm not forced to use a specific license) My situation is as follows: ** Cakephp 1.2 RC3 - MIT ** My code (views, controllers, models etc) - GPL? ** Some code with LGPL (tcpdf, for example TinyMCE) then, which is the best way to publish the application in one package? diferent licenses? On the one hand I read that MIT, GPL and LGPL are compatible but on the other that if I use GPL code in part forces me to use GPL code in all code ... on the other side as section 3 of the LGPL can convert to LPG but i dont know not changes that I have to do exactly greetings and thank you very much PD: forgiveness for my English --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: change MIT license to GPL?
AFAIK the licence is on a per file basis, and not per project. The only licence you need to worry about is what licence you give to your code as cake will stay MIT, TinyMCE with stay the licence it is released under.

Re: change MIT license to GPL?
Gwoo, You need to chill, and realize what you're talking about before making stupid accusations. You're confusing the issue. The topic at hand is in fact something that's done with OS software all the time. All the knowledge in the world won't help you if you're not paying attention.

Re: change MIT license to GPL?
hello again ... in cakephpforum.net have given me a solution. ** QUOTE ** According to the website of GNU you are allowed to have the following construction: Your Application (GPLv3 license) - CakePHP 1.2 RC3 (MIT license) - TinyMCE (LGPLv2.1 license) This means that your application uses the GPLv3 as an overall license, while CakePHP and TinyMCE both still have their own license types. THe only thing you MUST do in this case is include the original licenses with your application (by adding the license text as a text file) and you MUST leave the the license notices at the source code intact (although you may add your own in case of modifications). In case your not 100% sure how to use the licenses you can always contact the developers of the other applications to ask if it's allowed to use their code and license it as a package under your own (eg GPL) license.

change MIT license to GPL?

Re: change MIT license to GPL?
No, only the owner of the copyright can change the license. Depending on the size of the changes you make, you may or may not be able to claim ownership in the copyright. By my estimation, you would have to substantially change more than 50% of every class. That means modifying the logic not just changing names around. Anyway, you can make changes to the framework without changing the license. If you think your changes are that great, you should really think again. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: change MIT license to GPL?
As far as my small licensing knowledge goes, derivatives of a MIT-licensed work can be licensed under GPL, but the original copyright notice has to be left. Not to mean that it would be a good idea to fork CakePHP under a not backwards-compatible open source license, which would prevent from a potential merge with the main code base in the future. 2008/10/23 Gwoo [EMAIL PROTECTED] No, only the owner of the copyright can change the license.
