[4diac-dev] Licensing of 4diac projects
|
Hello everyone,
We stubled over a small issue when publishing code (accompanying code
for an ETFA'20 submission). A stock 4diac project will contain FBT files
with EPL license, and probably all useful applications will use some of
these FBs.
There might be the view that an application is not a derived work in the
sense of the EPL. But would this uphold in a court? After all, the
application workspace incorporates the code.
Is there a way to easily share a project including any custom FBTs but
excluding those shipped with 4diac IDE? That would make the situation
much easier license-wise.
Regars,
--
