Subject: [oc] GNU GPL or Lesser questions
I've read over both GPL and GNU Lesser licenses, and have one concern.
Hopefully someone here has experience or can offer an explanation.
My concern is this:
I've written/am writing core modules for my TI Dev board project, and
want to release these cores as 'free software' to individuals,
however, would like those that would use this set of cores in a
profitable way to contribute back to QorTek in one form or another.
I have no problem with students/individuals using these cores for
school/personal projects, in fact I encourage them to do so. But if
XYZ Corp wants to use the cores in verbatim/modified form and sell
that software based on these cores, is there a way to impose fees on
them? Is there another license that covers this?
I dont want to start any flame wars, I'm just new to GNU GPL/Lesser
and general software licenses.
Thanks in advance.
Brian
