Re: [Phpgroupware-users] Anouncement: eGroupWare fork of phpGroupWare

[SI Reasoning]

If my understanding is correct, the major issue between the two camps has to 
do with license preferences. A possible solution could be to have a 
phpgroupware plug-ins that could be created offsite but plugged into a 
phpgroupware module if an end-user so desires. This keeps phpgroupware GPL 
clean while also allowing end-users a choice to plug-in non-gpl code. If my 
understanding is correct, I believe that it is not incompatible with the gpl 
to add non-gpl plugins.
