to bring OpenMeetings in line with the License of OpenLaszlo we will switch from the LGPL to the EPL with the next release.
What does that mean for you?
- Actually not that much.
Eclipse Public License is even a bit more liberal then the LGPL
Quote from wikkipedia.org:
The Eclipse Public License is designed to be a business friendly free software license, and features weaker copyleft provisions than contemporary licenses such as the GNU General Public License (GPL). The receiver of EPL-licensed programs can use, modify, copy and distribute the work and modified versions, in some cases being obligated to release their own changes.[2]
The EPL is approved by the Open Source Initiative (OSI)[3] and the Free Software Foundation (FSF)[4].
