Licenses (GPL) - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
hi,
sorry if has been answered elsewhere i've been able find old posts not sure if situation has changed.
given joomla distributed under gpl (which version?) extensions (components, modules, etc) need gpl (or gpl compatible)?
if still case second question is: why not put exception in licensing terms allow 3rd party components linked joomla libraries? faq gives example here looks used allow 3pd developers use non-gpl licenses. surely harm no-one joomla core , libraries still gpl, allow non-gpl-compatible business models still participate , provide useful extensions.
from thousands of posts on in 2007 looks i'm year late on discussion presumably it'll nice , easy tell me decided (maybe point me clear , unequivocal post couldn't find decision reached). in advance.
