Hi guys,
Here's our stance regarding the recent GPL annoucement made by the core team. We plan to continue our business around Joomla! and have no plans to move our development to other CMS.
Because of the nature of our extensions (Mosets Tree and Mosets Hot Property), we believe we can come up with a solution to be in compliance with the GPL license. Such solution would require refactoring of our codebase to separate certain functions and classes. However this can not be done overnight and we expect to do this in the future version of our extensions.
What does this means to our customers? Not much actually, other than the assurance that we will continue working on our components. Eric (web-jive) explains it quite clearly regarding the GPL license. I'll add a few points here:
- If you're using licensed copy of Mosets Tree or Mosets Hot Property now, you're perfectly fine.
- You as a user of Mosets extensions are not violating any license and nobody can take legal action in this regard.
- Mosets Tree and Mosets Hot Property are not licensed under the GPL license. You can not redistribute the code and nobody can demand any source codes from your copy of Mosets extensions.
