by Brett Smith — published Apr 06, 2010 — last modified Apr 30, 2010 11:20 AM — filed under:
Recently we've seen some questions about whether Eclipse plug-ins can be released under the GPL. Answered briefly, this is possible if you can provide an additional permission with the license to allow combining your plug-in with the necessary EPL-covered libraries. The rest of this post examines why an additional permission is necessary, and has specific recommendations for interested developers.

by Brett Smith — published Jul 16, 2009 — last modified Jul 16, 2009 06:21 PM
