  1. Re:Not "Open", but GPLed by GigsVT · · Score: 5, Interesting

    After reading this story, I posted a GPLed snippet of my code on the site.

    If someone emailed me and said they would like to put it in their BSD licensed application, I would grant them a specific permission.

    I have a feeling most people that license their stuff under GPL would have similar feelings about small snippets of their GPL code. It can't hurt to ask, not everything has to be a huge political battle, we are all programmers here.
