FYI: Paragraf 3 of the LGPL entitled you to take any (part of the) LGPL-ed library, and publish it again under GPL if you want, or if you have to in order to merge the (parts of) the library into GPL-ed program. This was done with the purpose of clearing the doubts about the compatibility of the two licences. http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/lesser.html "3) You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library...." This of course causes problems with sending bug fixes back to original work, so I wouldn't execute this right unless something terrible happens to original project (premature death, licence change). cheers Denis -- T-Mobile Austria GmbH, Information Technologies / Services Knowledge Management & Process Automation Dr. Denis Havlik, eMail: denis.havlik@t-mobile.at Rennweg 97-99, BT2E0304031 Phone: +43-1-79-585/6237 A-1030 Vienna Fax: +43-1-79-585/6584 Mark <mark@nullcraft.org> Gesendet von: drupal-devel-bounces@drupal.org 09.03.2005 03:38 Bitte antworten an drupal-devel An: drupal-devel@drupal.org Kopie: Thema: Re: [drupal-devel] HTMLArea is dead, long live rich text editing [Virus checked] Negyesi Karoly wrote:

TinyMCE looks promising, and worked surprisingly well on FreeBSD/Firefox.

TinyMCE is [...] released [...] under LGPL

Do we accept Lesser GPL?

AFAIK, LGPL is perfectly compatible with GPL projects from a legal standpoint, considering we would just be including it as a library in a GPL project. -Mark
