GPL

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message 

Does anyone have any opinion about GPL (GNU Public License)? The key points
are:

- GPL code must be distributed with the source and the GPL text.
- Using GPL code causes the derived program to become GPL.

GPL is *way* too restrictive for Win32Lib - I don't plan on GPL'ing it.

But I am writing an application to which I plan on releasing the source, and
GPL seems a good way of preventing people from plundering an open source
work and claiming it as their own.

Opinions?
