Re: Licence of version 9.0 modules

Savoir-faire Linux, David Dufresne
Thank you all for your answers. My intention was only to take the pulse of OCA on this matter. I am not myself in favor of using LGPL. I think the position of OCA is clear. Sorry if it seems like a redondant subject that has already been discussed.

That's with full commit logs and history. Now imagine that task across the OCA universe. On Wed, 14 Sep 2016 10:40 PM Ronald Portier < ronald@therp.nl [1] > wrote: +1 Completely agree with Stefan.
