Indeed, Flint is dual licensed under GPL and LGPL - so why don't we re-license sagelib under LGPL then. ...[SNIP]... I don't know whether it'd need a lot of individual approvals, but GPL->LGPL is certainly done quite often. E.g. GMP was relicenced under LGPL from version 6 on.
Yes, relicensing GPL->LGPL would require approval from every contributor. Or at least every contributor to the parts of sagelib that would be made available under LGPL. I think getting approval from all contributors would be very hard, maybe impossible. Also, the parts of sagelib that would be available under LGPL can't include GPL code. Disentangling this seems hard. - DLD -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
