<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>I got a question about GPL license when
using (J)VLC.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Because we now use (J)VLC, does this now
make our entire code falling under the GPL license?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Or do we only need to make the part that
uses (J)VLC GPL?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>The reason why I ask this is because our
client wants to keep the code private (competitive branch of industry). What I
mean is that he does not want to give the entire Java code out to the public.
We don't want to make a lot of trouble, that's why we ask now, before it's
released. The only people who can judge this, are the (J)VLC developers itself.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>The (J)VLC "blob" is a very
small part of the entire program and it does not focus onto the video streaming
part. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
