(Her burde vi legge til de nye årene eter år 2000 dår vi har endret den, samt byttet ut Rune som vedlikeholder, men det er en annen sak).
Ja, endrer du, eller skal jeg?
Uansett, dette betyr at selve orddatabasen er GPL v2 eller senere, og det er nok det vi må forholde oss til.
Flott! http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhatDoesCompatMean angir forøvrig:
== What does it mean to say a license is “compatible with the GPL?” == It means that the other license and the GNU GPL are compatible; you can combine code released under the other license with code released under the GNU GPL in one larger program. All GNU GPL versions permit such combinations privately; they also permit distribution of such combinations provided the combination is released under the same GNU GPL version. The other license is compatible with the GPL if it permits this too. GPLv3 is compatible with more licenses than GPLv2: it allows you to make combinations with code that has specific kinds of additional requirements that are not in GPLv3 itself. Section 7 has more information about this, including the list of additional requirements that are permitted.
... så det betyr vel at vi ikke har noe problemer åkke såm. Men det er kanskje nærliggende å tolke det slik at siden en del av ordlista er utgitt som GPLv3, så er hele koden det?
