I prefer to release under MIT or MPL; GPL can infect other applications that use your module.

I'm curious about the preferred license for modules that are distributed through the npmjs.org repository In particular is there any legal barrier to using GPL in such modules? As far as I understand it, the legal barrier would be whether a module which uses a GPL'd module is derivative of that module. I don't think that it would be, but then the LGPL license does exist for a reason. + David Herron - nodejs.davidherron.com -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
