If I'm reading the license right, camlp4 is part of "the Compiler" as defined in the LICENSE document. In particular, camlp4/etc/pr_o.ml is part of "the Compiler". If I write a nontrivial preprocessor for OCAML code with camlp4 and I use pr_o.ml, then my executable file is derived from pr_o.ml and therefore I have to distribute source for my preprocessor if I distribute the executable. Is my reasoning valid? I seem to be working from the November 14 CVS, so I could easily be wrong if the license or copyright notices have changed since then. -- Tim Freeman tim@fungible.com GPG public key fingerprint ECDF 46F8 3B80 BB9E 575D 7180 76DF FE00 34B1 5C78 ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
