- chj 13y agoOh, then fuck FSF and drop LGPL. It's their product after all. If they can get a license change, they can get another, can't they?
- justincormack 13y agoBut as Bradley says if this was the reason for the license change why did they not switch to eg BSD? Something that would solve the problem definitively.
- synchronise 13y agoHis opinion is just that, an opinion, whether or not they are correct. The fact of the matter is that no one else except the VLC team can initiate legal proceedings and Bradley Kuhn has no right to do so, unless he makes a contribution.
