[ajax-user] Re: [vamp-user] Re: What is the relevant license?

[Gary E. <gar...@ya...>]

Hi,

The response below seems to contradict both the header
in the source files of the distribution (which state
GPL licensing) and the Sourceforge project pages and
this list (which state Apache v2.0 licensing). 

Can someone please confirm what the actual licensing
is and tell me if the headers in the source files need
to match the license, because my belief is that we
must comply with the license specified in the headers
of the source files of the distribution that we have.

Regards
Gary

   All Ajax projects are licensed under the GNU
Library/Lesser GPL
(LGPL) and you can use them for free even in
commercial settings.
Note, however, that the LGPL requires that you
contribute changes to
the libraries themselves back to the project. Let me
know if this
answers your question. I also invite you to send
future posting to the
Ajax mailinglist online @
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ajax-user
