AFAIK, the note added to the framework license does not specify the terms about contributed code:
(web2py/LICENCE) ### On Commercial Redistribution In accordance with LGPL you may: - redistribute web2py with your apps (including official web2py binary versions) - release your applications which use official web2py libraries under any license you wish But you must: - make clear in the documentation that your application uses web2py - release any modification of the web2py libraries under the LGPLv3 license I think that the second point about the "... official libraries..." would allow to include the framework package into a project package with different license, (in case that is what you are asking) as long as there is no conflict between them. There are previous threads about this subject, so perhaps you want to search for them in the mail list for better documentation. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
