** Missing features
** Licensing
- The class library will be licensed under the terms of the GNU
- LGPL. Some people have pointed out that the plain LGPL is
- troublesome for embedded use of the Mono class libraries. So
- we are considering to use the GPL with a special exception
- (like the <a
- href="http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/classpath.html">GNU
- Classpath</a> project did.
-
- The exception to the GPL would be:
-
- <i>The library is distributed under the terms of the GNU General
- Public License with the following exception:
-
- If you link this library against your own program, then you do not
- need to release the source code for that program. However, any
- changes that you make to the library itself, or to any native
- methods upon which the library relies, must be re-distributed in
- accordance with the terms of the GPL.</i>
-
- If you are going to contribute, please keep in mind that we
- might require you to agree that Ximian might adjust the
- license to enable the use of the class libraries on embedded
- systems or to develop proprietary applications using Mono.
-
- We suggest that you assign the copyright of your work to the
- GNOME Foundation or the Free Software Foundation to simplify
- defending the code in case it is used inappropiately.
+ The class library is being licensed under the terms of the
+ <a
+ href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html">MIT
+ license.</a> This is the same license used by the X11 window
+ system.
