Those clauses apply to people (re-) distributing other people's GPL software or derivative works. I assume Axelor is the original author of OOCRM. I don't know whether it is derivative though. [/quote] Please, read the license again, even v2 is very clear: - if you sell or give to your clients any part of work, that contains some GPL code, you are bound to the GPL terms. Unless that work is 100% yours, no other copyright holder. - you can only use GPLv2 code *within* your company, without being required to give the code, because there is no distribution. - The application of the GPL can be requested by *any* party, so the claim that "only those who received the work can ask for the source code" is completely false. - Trunk version of OpenERP is licensed using the Affero clause, which means that you are bound by the GPL even if you don't give out any OpenERP modifications you've done, but you just run the software as a service to your clients. Yes, the GPL is that strict, in forcing you to give out the source code. Currently, the AGPLv3 is the license of all OpenERP code, including the 'osv.py' and 'fields.py' files. These two, mean that you can't practically write a module without importing them, and having your work be derivative from GPLv3. -------------------- m2f -------------------- -- http://www.openobject.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=56592#56592 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ Tinyerp-users mailing list http://tiny.be/mailman2/listinfo/tinyerp-users
