hi,
im reading the lingpipe terms of service here - Lingpipe tos
Does this mean that if i use lingpipe and integrate it into some other software ive built myself I have to make the software ive built myself available as open source? is this normal with OS licences?
im referring to this bit
Whether you distribute the Software or not, if you distribute any computer program that is not the Software, but
that (a) is distributed in connection with the Software or contains any part of the Software, (b) causes the
Software to be copied or modified (i.e., ran, used, or executed), such as through an API call, or (c) uses any
output of the Software, then you must distribute that other computer program under a license defined as a Free
Software License by the Free Software Foundation or an Approved Open Source License by the Open Source Initiative.
cheers
