No it isn't. It means you can't grab the combined memory image out of memory and ship that to others. You could ship the non-combined program. IE You can ship an llvm jit and a gpl2 program, and jit the program on the user's machine. ;-) > Does anyone know o...

I'm not. I was just pointing to the fact. :) I remember Apple and others have stuck with GPLv2 GCC, but I don't think there was any cross between them to warrant worry. I'm not sure anyone would do that because of...

This is fairly different, but it delves very far into the grey area of what a derivative w...

Hi all, I'm currently writing an R package and want to declare a GPL2 license. According to the license agreement, I'm supposed to display: "This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation ... See the GNU General Public License f...

I have added the header below to the top of the R source file to indicate the changes in the copyrights for the code. The package was originally released under GPL2. I have no experience with copyright issues, and would appreciate it if someone who does would kindly indicate whether the header below is correct and conforms with normal practice. Thanks in advance, Whit Armstrong <header in R source file itspkg.r> # itspkg.r: a time series library i...

...enXenCenter (aka OpenXenManager) that is an open source replacement for Citrix's XenCenter. This tool works with XenServer. But as per the blog entry: http://blog.xen.org/index.php/2010/02/09/xen-cloud-platform-installation/ it is also supposed to work with Xen Cloud Platform. XCP is licensed GPL2 and is a combination of multiple packages. Has the team looked at the feasibility of taking the agent component from XCP and packaging it for Debian. If we can get the agent, and then along with OpenXenCenter, we can have a good management tool for Xen in Debian. -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf | http://...

Hi Mongrels, Anyone used Packet? http://rubyforge.org/projects/packet It''s a pure-Ruby (I think) evented framework. It might offer a nice way forward for 1.9''s system threads, JRuby, and Windows, all at once. Mongrel''s green thread queue doesn''t have a lot of life left in it.

Hi folks, AFAIK CentOS uses RedHat's source RPMs for building the next CentOS release. I am not sure about the bootstrap procedure and the infra- structure packages, so lets put these corner cases aside. RedHat's "regular" binary and source packages are based on open source (GPL2, GPL3, Apache license, whatever). For building the binary RPMs other open source RPMs with compatible license conditions are used. My question is: Are RedHat's binary RPMs "poisoned" somehow, making it impossible for CentOS to redistribute RedHat's *binary* packages without goin...

Yes, it looks like the core is all GPL2. But they go on a file-by-file basis.

However, the COPYING file in the R directory corresponds to GPL2. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/licensing-of-R-packages-tp20497391p20497391.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

...ed the binary attribution issue, but a second concern was raised by some who believe the Apache 2 and GPL version 2.0 licenses are incompatible. The second email thread addressed that compatibility concern by introducing a second exception clause. In the second email thread, those concerned about GPL2 were satisfied, but an additional issue was raised about the first binary attribution clause: specifically, we aim for the LLVM runtime libraries to be used very permissively, even by proprietary compilers and linkers. This led to another round of intense (offline) discussion about the concrete wo...
