Hi all, We had repeated requests to change the license of libsensors from GPL to LGPL, so that non-GPL applications can link with it. I would like to see it happen, so I have setup a page explaining it in the wiki: http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/LibsensorsLicense Now the difficult part begins: contact all copyright holders, and as many contributors as possible, and ask them if they agree to the change of license from GPL 2 to LGPL 2.1. If things go well, we could change the license on July 1st, 2010 (1 year from now.) The change would obviously only apply to versions of libsensors released after this day, and only to version 3.x and later. I will update the wiki page as we receive answers from the contributors. If you have contributed to libsensors, please let me know now if you agree to change the license from GPL 2 to LGPL 2.1. I really do not expect anyone to object, but we have to ask everyone still, for legal reasons. Thanks, -- Jean Delvare
