Hi everyone,

  I've just subscribed to the list and I'm entering this interesting
  discussion. I'm sorry, I may have missed the previous messages.

  I know that OCaml is distributed under the QPL and this license
  is not GPL-compatible. This means that people (Ocaml program
  writers) cannot redistribute their programs under the GPL
  (they have to choose LGPL instead, for example).
  
  Some people came up with a dual-licensing solution. The most
  obvious examples are Perl and Qt.
  A dual QPL/GPL license for OCaml could solve the problem
  that is mentioned.

  I think that freedom is the right to choose the licence for the
  software you write.

Cheers,
