Howdy, Quoting "Jeremy C. Reed" <reed@reedmedia.net>: > Are you the only author? Yes. > What are your goals? (I personally like the simplicity of the BSD > license.) Anyone is free to take the code and do with it what they please provided they maintain the copyright notice. I google'd for both the BSD and PAL, read through them, and am now leaning toward the BSD license. > If others have contributed LGPL code to you that is integrated in your > project, then you may need to ask them for permission. (Because they were > contributing code thinking that it was for a LGPL'd project.) There are some contributed patches submitted by others. I've kept the list of people who have submitted patches so I can contact them for permission. Thanks for bringing that one up, I hadn't thought of that. I believe I'm also going to have to discuss this with "upstairs" since the name of my company is also in the documentation.
