Re: [Bacula-users] Request for help

Hello,
Two points: I think that what Radoslaw is saying is correct, and
he is a technical person. If someone doesn't understand or agree
with his reasoning it would not be surprising because his points
are quite technical and not everyone understands the technical
issues, but those technical points make all the difference
concerning the license (linking most often creates a derived work
under the GPL, while executing a separate program does not). By
the way, the Bacula license is quite explicit on how plugins are
to be treated because I added specific text for plugins.
Radoslaw is correct, the current Bacula license is rather
restrictive concerning plugins, I made it that way on purpose,
because I was not sure what the best thing to do would be at the
beginning, so my reasoning was that it would be better to start
with a restrictive license then ease it up if there was a need
(the other way creates lots of problems with developers). I have
been thinking about making the plugin license less restrictive in
the future, and I will probably do so by the next release
(hopefully June 2015).
Best regards,
Kern
