Hi,
a question cropped up about Liberty being the GNU Eiffel compiler. I
read that Liberty was put under the GPL license; does this
automatically mean that binary executables created with Liberty are
automatically forced to be published under that same license? Where
can I read authoritive information about Liberty's status in this respect?
The compiler is released under GPL. The core libraries are released
under a "very liberal" MIT/X Consortium licence.
Wrappers are released under the same license of the wrapped library.
Your program can have any license you want, respecting the licenses of
the external libraries like readline, Gtk, Qt, sqlite et cetera.
I've been *really* busy these months with additional task (energy
assesment of a largish sport center) that required all my attention.
I've almost finished it, in a couple of weeks I will return full time on
Liberty.
