Is there an open source license that allows any use, except within a GPL/copyleft project? [on hold]
- by Marcos Scriven
I would like to open source some code with a permissive license (say MIT/BSD)
I would be happy for it to be used both commercially and in any open source project that is not copyleft (GPL being the main one obviously).
I looked at the list of non-GPL compatible licenses here: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#GPLIncompatibleLicenses
But none seemed to be quite what I wanted.
Is there such a license already? If not, would it even be possible to do this?
EDIT: I have been asked to edit this question to clarify. I'm not sure how it's unclear, as that wasn't stated. What I would like to know is simply the answer to the topic - can anyone point to a standard licence that is permissive as possible, while restricting use in copyleft licence.
I'm not clear why the question would be suspended by the same person that edited spelling differences (apparently British English is a 'mistake') in the question earlier, and by another that had answered licencing questions in other posts.
