Hello, I am trying to understand the licenses around LLVM ecosystem as described in: http://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#copyright-license-patents I couldn't figure out if I can write a compiler using the OCaML bindings and redistribute it as GPL. It seems like I can, due to the antivirality of UIUC. It would be also good if the Kaleidoskope example came with using terms, hopefully in public domain. :) cheers -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You have to honour at as far as the LLVM libraries themselve are concerned, e.g. preserve the copyright statements. The license is GPL compatible, so you think link your own code to the LLVM libraries, even if your code is under GPL. Joerg
