Subject: [dpdk-dev] GPL/LGPL .vs BSD license
Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2015 20:44:41 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E24C36BE-C344-467A-B999-679B264CECB8@netgate.com> (raw)
The following files have LGPL or GPL licenses. I can see the libretto_eal and the four files that are part of DTS being GPL, but there others seem like a mistake.
Especially the docs, and the presence of the LICENSE.LGPL file.
Is it possible to clean these up and make them BSD licensed?
