There is some debate on what constitutes linking vs extending in this context. Distributing both parts in a single archive is argued to be extending no matter how the chunks of code communicate w/ each other. However, if they are completely separate packages -- and even better if they communicate by generic means -- it should be OK. But yes, I was tunnel-visioning a bit there when I included lgpl in the first post. -JimC |
