I was told that we can’t use mongrel with JRuby because mongrel is GPL and based on lawyer language if we include mongrel then our code violates some situation where someone could claim our code should become free. I always thought this would only apply if we modified the mongrel code base in any way then we have to make that mongrel version available but this is not what I am told but rather our code base (totally seperate from mongrel) can’t use mongrel …
This is somehow related to black duck, but I am still confused about what is going on here
