I think that: A) There is no compatibility concern between LGPL and GPLv2 with Classpath exception B) The GPLv2 (even with the classpath exception) is a more restrictive license than LGPL. C) This musing is reasonably irrelevant to anything. :) There is no legal restriction on this package going forward (that I am aware of at this time). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
