Personally, I think there is too much guesswork involved in understanding what the LGPL means re Java. For example, from http://jtds.sourceforge.net/license.html, a Java library: Using jTDS is considered to be dynamic linking; hence our interpretation of the LGPL is that the use of the

Right, FWIW in my previous company we disallowed LGPL libraries because of the clause that explicitly allows reverse engineering to substitute different versions of the library. Of course, it's unlikely that anyone would ever do this but it would be a support nightmare if they did, so it was just

Interesting, I think I like this presentation better, I found the explicit boxes in the OP a little distracting. I guess this then becomes more like Python-style significant indentation, which might be an interesting approach too. On 5 June 2013 12:15, Matthew Chadwick mathn...@gmail.com wrote:

Alpacas is an application that displays Clojure source code with forms shown as nested boxes, doing away with parenthesis altogether. Run it with lein run and it will display its own source code. There is partial support to navigate the source code by moving a cursor with the left and right

Thanks for letting me know, I was not aware of this issue. Google code seems to let you just switch the license, so I switched it to EPL 1.0. On Tuesday, 4 June 2013 21:24:49 UTC+1, Gary Trakhman wrote: Just fyi, most clojure libs are published under EPL or Apache licenses, of course the
