RE: [Objectbridge-developers] OJB Licensing model

[Dixon-Peugh, D. <Dav...@tp...>]

I beleive the LGPL is definitely a better fit for OJB.  I have no problems
changing my stuff to LGPL.  I would recommend that the change happens as
part of the 0.5 release, if only to say "code after 0.5 is LGPL, before is
GPL".

Subject: [Objectbridge-developers] OJB Licensing model


Hi all, 

I have been contacted by several projects that would like to use OJB but
have problems in complying to the current GLP license model of OJB. 

They are building commercial systems or systems that are licensed under
Apache license etc. 

My intention is to have OJB used in such projects as long as our copyright
is respected and no commercial O/R system is build by using our code. 

Do you have any ideas which open source could be more adequate for this
approach? 
I heard that the Lesser Public Licence (LGPL) fits better to library style
software. 
Any comments or suggestions are welcome, 


Thomas
