Below I quoted the Modified LGPL...
"As a special exception, the copyright holders of this library give
you permission to link this library with independent modules to
produce an executable, regardless of the license terms of these
independent modules, and to copy and distribute the resulting
executable under terms of your choice, provided that you also meet,
for each linked independent module, the terms and conditions of the
license of that module. An independent module is a module which is not
derived from or based on this library."
This part I understand and relates to static linking...
" If you modify this library, you may extend this exception to your
version of the library, but you are not obligated to do so. If you do
not wish to do so, delete this
exception statement from your version."
This part I don't quite understand... Could somebody explain this
please?
It means that you are free to relicense a file back to the regular
LGPL if it was originally distributed under our modified LGPL.
