"A project" == https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthology - nothing more or less than that. The issue of "compatibility" is overstated by the proponents of "strong copyleft". Just 0.2€ Am Mi., 19. Juni 2019 um 11:29 Uhr schrieb Antoine Thomas < antoine.tho...@prestashop.com>: > Patrice, > > One la

Patrice, One last question. You said: > the EUPL covered code is publicly available and reusable in other projects covered by OSL, GPL-2.0, GPL-3.0, LGPL etc. But what about the opposite, using OSL, GPL-2.0, GPL-3.0, LGPL etc. in a EUPL project? and then ship it? Antoine [image: PrestaShop] <
