[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Prolog lovers, be ware the SWI Prolog 6.2.2, which is comming into Fedora
21 now, advertises a new license. This time the new license is the EPL
(Eclipse Public License).

Lawyers, don't panic! Although EPL is not compatible with GPL, pl is
covered by GPL with special exception granted by R.M.S. himself. In
addition, the EPL code is a library in a separated file which is merged
with the GPL code at run-time only (interpreted language).

Summary: pl-6.6.2-1.fc21's license is:

(GPLv2+ with exceptions or Artistic 2.0) and (GPLv2+ with exceptions)
and LGPLv2+ and LGPLv2 and UCD and BSD and Public Domain and EPL and
GPLv2 and GPLv3+.
