Hi,
I have received some code that would make sense merging, but it uses a
library that is licensed under the Apache license (v2).
Now, the fun part is that the position of the Apache Foundation:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/licence-FAQ.html#GPL
differs from the position of the FSF:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#GPLIncompatibleLicenses
about the compatibility of the two licenses.
Has someone ever dealt with a case like this?
(You remember that we removed some non-GPL code in 2006 from our code base.)
Marc
