If I understand well, Alex can choose the (3) and get a license that is GPL compatible. But as it has been said before the only licenses compatible with GPL are weaker license, that are "at least" GPL. So a company getting into the Caml Consortium might get rights to redistribute the compiler as GPL ? Are you sure about that ? It looks like actually getting into the Consortium helps with being able to fork privatly the compiler, as Lexifi did, but not to redistribute a GPL version of this fork. I understand INRIA folks are not lawyer, neither I am, but it looks logical. Regards, Nicolas Cannasse
