hi, as said in my last mail we are currently evaluating MantisConnect. Now - unfortunately - I find the license issue quite unclear, at least for the webservice part. There are 2 sources of information: 1. the Website [1] ---------- 3 licenses are defined, 2 commercial types and one "free for open source issue tracking only"=20 2. the Code itself: ---------- the file headers=20 --------CUT--------- # This program is distributed under dual licensing. These include # GPL and a commercial licenses. Victor Boctor reserves the right to # change the license of future releases. # See docs/ folder for more details --------CUT--------- The mentioned docs/ folder does not exist, but a doc/ folder instead. And the LICENSE file in the doc/ folder contains the GPL license ... Being no license expert, I would like to know what license is applicable now ... And as far as I understand the GPL, it allows me to run the the software governed by it for any purpose ... Please enlighten me :-) [1] http://www.futureware.biz/mantisconnect/license.php --=20 Udo Rader bestsolution.at EDV Systemhaus GmbH http://www.bestsolution.at |
