Yes. But there's a spectrum there, between something like perl where the plugins/libraries are most reasonably considered completely separate works and some other case where everything's distributed together and tightly integrated enough to be considered a single work. I don't think there are many people ready to argue that plugins will *always*, *necessarily* require compatible licenses with all other plugins for the same parent code, but there is a grey area. Unless you're ready to consult a lawyer you should probably steer well clear of that grey area. Perl, I think, isn't really in that grey area (unless the same perl code uses both libs). -- Jeremy Hankins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP fingerprint: 748F 4D16 538E 75D6 8333 9E10 D212 B5ED 37D0 0A03
