Let me summarize my answer again: It doesn't matter. The GPL doesn't allow it even if the library's licenses do. Linking (even dynamically) a closed source library and distributing it as part of a GPLed work is a violation of the GPL. Even if the KDU license said: "Feel free to use this any way you want", you still couldn't use it with a GPLed work, since you can't satisfy the GPL requirements for source code availability of the closed library. > So I'd ask again if someone from LL who are licensee of KDU and Vivox could > clarify if it is legally possible to package these components with a custom > built viewer or not. The chance of you getting any even semi-official answer regarding licensing on this list from a Linden are pretty low. -Jason _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/SLDev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
