this is why you often see dual licensing GPL/buying a license. So it makes sense. Licences are tools to shape your business model Now for pharo this is MIT because if you want you can run out with it and sell it for a lot of money :) Stef
You have it backwards. There is *no* GPL code in OpenQwaq. If there had been the whole project would have had to become GPL and Teleplace could not have protected itself against others using the code. By releasing the code as GPL Teleplace's investors retain the sole commercial rights to the code. No-one else can use the code without their contributions becoming GPL. Hence no-one wanting to do commercial development using OpenQwaq can do so and protect their contributions. Teleplace's investors, however, /can/ subsequently sell or exploit commercial rights to the code, which they still hold.
Ah, yes.. sorry. i'm not expert in this legal stuff anyways :) Thanks for explanation.
