first comment :
* a special directory with ./contrib/gpl ?
second comment :
* I don't really understand your position regarding the GNU General Public License. The GPL is offering multiple
advantagesfor a big project and software like PostgreSQL. For example :
* Contribution back to the main tree more easy if redistribution. (like HP and Samba team are doing,
copyrightholder remains samba team)
* More easy to get a RF (Royalty Free) license from a patent owner. (this is guarantee for him that it
willnot go back to proprietary software where it's not a RF license) (like the UB-Trees)
* A possible bigger audience.
Dual licensing is also an alternative but could be a real mess.
It's just idea.
