Alternative License?

[Matt Johnson]

Hi,

I found out about re-linq via it's usage in https://github.com/themotleyfool/Lucene.Net.Linq

That library is dual-licensed, Apache and LGPL.  But re-linq is LGPL only, which creates a problem for me.

Would you possibly consider offering an Apache license?  Thanks.

Hi Matt

 

Generally, the only problem that LGPL creates is that you cannot change the license of re-linq itself. I.e., you cannot turn re-linq into a closed-source library, which is a good thing.

 

Using re-linq from projects with any license, OSS or commercial, is not a problem. That's what LGPL is designed for.

 

If you really think there is a problem, I might be able to help you if you provide some details.

 

That said, we might re-license it if there's a really good reason.

 

Cheers,

Stefan
