  1. Finally!!! http://twitpic.com/uo84z about 4 hours ago from TweetDeck
  2. New blog post: OSS Licensing: GPL vs. LGPL vs. BSD, going from one to the other http://johnvpetersen.com/?p=386 12:56 PM Dec 19th from Twitter Tools
  3. @sbohlen If you want to make sure downstream users replenish the OSS tributary, you would likely opt for lgpl or a modified bsd lic. 7:23 AM Dec 18th from TweetDeck in reply to sbohlen
  4. @sbohlen It's why selection of an OSS license from the beginning is an important decision. 7:22 AM Dec 18th from TweetDeck in reply to sbohlen

  7. Had a great time @indyhall today. Good to see @sarajchipps 5:11 PM Dec 17th from TweetDeck
  8. @sbohlen That would result in a dilution of rights - which is not generally allowed. OTOH, a fork of a BSD project could likely go LGPL. 5:10 PM Dec 17th from TweetDeck in reply to sbohlen
  9. @sbohlen Those downstream acts are what makes lgpl and bsd different. For that reason, I don't think you could go from LGPL to BSD 5:06 PM Dec 17th from TweetDeck in reply to sbohlen
  10. @sbohlen BSD has no such requirement. If you modify BSD code, there is no requirement that those changes be released to the open src comm. 5:05 PM Dec 17th from TweetDeck in reply to sbohlen
  11. @sbohlen Much depends on lic compatibility. With LGPL, mods have to be released to public (quid pro quo). This is the GPL portion of LGPL 5:04 PM Dec 17th from TweetDeck in reply to sbohlen
