The Free Software Foundation has published
a short article on relicensing versus license compatibility.
The FSF's Licensing and
Compliance Lab receives many questions and license violation reports
related to projects that had their license changed by a downstream
distributor, or that are combined from two or more programs under
different licenses. We collaborated with Yoni Rabkin, an experienced
and long time FSF licensing volunteer, on an updated version of his
article to provide the free software community with a general
explanation on how the GNU General Public License (GNU’GPL) is
intended to work in such situations.
