#LIBRECAD DWG CODE#

I'd just like to see this resolved in a way that makes everyone happier than the current situation does, and wanted to say that the FSF seems willing to look at it further. Support and documentation are free from our large, dedicated community of users. I'm sending a copy of this to post to John and Josh, but I'm not wanting to get involved in any negotiations beyond this, as I feel that doing so would just add confusion.

Seems to me like this couldn't hurt, as presumably having some code to start from is better than not having it. The suggestion was that Rallaz or whoever the official 'maintainer' of LibreCAD is should get back in touch with John Sullivan () and Joshua Gay () if there is any interest in using some or all of the LibreDWG code to discuss trying again to resolve the issue. At least as I understand it, they were going to talk about fixing the license (presumably by changing it to be LGPL v3 instead of GPL v3 which would solve the use problem) and then someone said there wasn't any interest, so the effort got dropped.

I got agreement that it was a significant issue and that it was something the FSF would be willing to discuss making changes on their end to fix, but that there seems to have been some missed communications or other confusion about this which led to the issue not being handled properly.

I attended the FSF's LibrePlanet conference this past weekend, and talked with some of their folks about this license incompatibility issue, and how it seemed that something was wrong with the picture if a GPL license problem was causing issues for a free software project.
