To be clear, the ALv2 is characterized as a "BSD variant"... It is also extremely popular and well known and understood.
- cm3 10y agoYes, as is GPL(2,3), but your normal software developer doesn't understand either fully as they do BSD, MIT, ISC. EDIT: the "as is" part is in the context of "understood".
- jimjag 10y agoI would not call GPL2/3 as a BSD variant in any way... BSD is permissive; GPL2/3 are strong copyleft. Unless you have a VERY lax definition of "variant" grin EDIT: Thx for the clarification!
- cm3 10y agoI didn't say that, but I can see how you'd interpret it this way, if you consider the parent comment. "as is" was referring to "understood". Sorry for the missing context.
