This seem to be the easy case. remaining problems may be: 1. is it sufficient to include in the THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.html: This software may include/aggregate the bla-dictionary under GPL license ... ? 2. On Windows (and maybe other installers the Linux rpm and Solaris pkg) all the packages have been combined to one big install blob. Is this still aggregation ? As long as we ensure that we can easily detach the GPL'd dictionaries with a simple mechanism from the overall install blob all concerns should be adressed. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=65039 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Feb 20 11:46:47 + 2007 --- We asked FSF if such an inclusion should be problematic, and the answear we got bach was (passages marked ghk is from Gaute H. Kvalnes, a norwegian translator of OOo): ghk This issue seems to boil down to a meta-question on what ghk compatible licenses really mean: When we combine GPL-ed and ghk LGPL-ed code, do the individual parts of the source code keep ghk their original licenses, or must they all be relicensed to GPL? I think the answer to this is pretty staightforward, but please keep in mind that I am not a lawyer, and that the information is possibly not 100% complete, or that I may have misunderstood you. ghk I can imagine two scenarios: ghk 1. The LGPL-ed main part stays LGPL, while the module and the ghk one larger program [1] is GPL-ed. In this case, I don't quite ghk understand what the license on the program as a whole will ghk cover. This is indeed what happens as far as I can see. If you combine them into one package, you should treat the overall package as if it were GPL'ed -- that will always fulfill all the necessary conditions for the LGPL'ed code, as well, which has more permissions than GPL'ed code, but identical requirements. I am not sure that I understand what you mean by license on the program as a whole in this case. Do you mean the combined package or do you mean something else? Quite frankly: From your descriptions it does not seem clear why you should not be allowed to distribute OpenOffice under LGPL with GPL'ed dictionaries as long as you yourself treat the entire package as if it were GPL'ed, which does not seem a problem from what you described as your objectives. Could you tell us who said that it was not possible to do so? There may be a misunderstanding or misinformation worth clarifying. Regards, Georg -- I would suggest OOo sent a formal letter to fsf to let them legally confirm this officially. It seeems to be a non-existent problem, that is: The dictionaries should just be incorporated and shipped.

However, let me explain the basic idea: The main part of the code stays LGPL like today, but is included into a larger GPL-ed program. It's possible for the main code to stay LGPL-ed, because LGPL is GPL compatible. But it would now also become possible to include additional GPL-ed components like dictionaries (even if not considered mere aggregation). As for non-GPL libraries, I don't know. Is that still a problem when the main part of the code remains LGPL? (There are of course a number of GPL-compatible licenses which should pose no problem. I don't think that's what you're talking about, though. http:// www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html ) - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Therefore their licenses do not need to be compatible. The full e-mail exchange is below. Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2007 03:15:09 -0500 From: John Steele Scott via RT licensing AT fsf.org To: pescetti Subject: [gnu.org #306930] OpenOffice.org and GPL dictionaries [pescetti - Fri Sep 15 09:59:36 2006]: Hi there, I would like to hear your opinion on a GPL/LGPL-related problem that we are studying for distribution of OpenOffice.org. I'm going to post your answer in the ongoing discussion at http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=65039 The OpenOffice.org office suite can use a dictionary and/or a thesaurus, which is a simple data file in a specific format (i.e., there is no source code for it). Installation packages including both OpenOffice.org and a dictionary/thesaurus are common. The availability of the dictionary/thesaurus is checked at runtime and OpenOffice.org enables or disables the relevant functionality accordingly. So OpenOffice.org can work without the dictionary/theasurus and, conversely, the dictionary/thesaurus can be used without OpenOffice.org (e.g., as a data file for command-line spellcheckers/thesauri). Would it be possible to bundle LGPL(2.1)-licensed releases of OpenOffice.org and GPL(=2)-licensed dictionaries in the same installation package? It is unclear whether this is mere aggregation of two packages that can be used independently, or whether placing the two components into one installation package, and the mutual benefits given by the bundle, forbid the interpretation as mere aggregation. Thanks, Andrea. Dear Andrea, Thank you for your inquiry. First, allow me to apologise for the delay in replying to your message. In the case you have described above, the executable program and each dictionary/thesaurus would be considered as seperate works. Therefore their licenses do not need to be compatible. Sorry once again for the late reply. Please note that this is not legal advice. regards, John - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

No, we should not discuss it. We must wait for legal review and this is all about this issue ;-) - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Including GPL'd dictionaries should be okay, as these are just lists of words (i.e. plain text files) which are loaded at runtime. *No* GPL'd code at all is involved. 2.) Not distributing dictionaries is a *major* usability problem. Having DicOOo is nice but didn't prevent loads of user questions about how to make the German spellchecker work (back when it was not distributed yet). - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Currently the German dictionary is included in OOo, but not under the GPL but under a different license which allows distributing the word lists with software that uses OpenDocument as its primary format. This license does however not allow modification which basically makes it impossible to fix errors without the help of wordlist maintainer. This is not really acceptable. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
